The Rotary Club of Alpharetta surprised North Fulton Community Charities (NFCC) with a $15,000 check at their recent meeting. The generous donation will help the organization expand its services in the north Fulton community.

We are excited and grateful to the Rotary Club of Alpharetta for this generous donation, said NFCC Executive Director Holly M. York. The Alpharetta Rotary has been a dedicated partner in the fight against poverty in our community, and this donation further demonstrates their commitment to help our neighbors in need.

The Rotary Club of Alpharetta regularly volunteers to pick up food for the food pantry from a local market in addition to supporting the back-to-school and holiday programs. Alpharetta Rotarians John Hipes and Ted Schwartz both serve on the NFCC board of directors.

Through dedication, hard work, and community support, NFCC leads the way in helping the citizens of north Fulton County, said Will Daniel, president of Rotary Club of Alpharetta 2019-2020. The Rotary Club of Alpharetta is proud to donate $15,000 to NFCC, and we look forward to partnering with them for many years to come.
