CIS receives Christmas donation from Keller Williams


This Christmas will be much brighter for the families of four CIS of Coweta County students thanks to a generous gift from Keller Williams Realty. The four students were selected to receive $75 gift cards as part of The Keller Williams Kares 4 Kids program, which since 2005 has donated over $525,000 directly to children in need and to children’s charity organizations, social services organizations and health care facilities in communities served by Keller Williams.

Mary Ann Dossett Shelton, Team Leader of Keller Williams Realty Atlanta Partners Newnan, said, “This is our last program of the year and we thought it would be a great idea to help some of our deserving children have a Merry Christmas.”

As part of its local Christmas effort, Keller Williams donated 40 gift cards in the amount of $75 to be given to students selected by Coweta County Schools officials.

Communities In Schools of Coweta County was one of the organizations selected. Denise Buchanan, the CIS Site Coordinator at East Coweta High School, has already identified four students to receive the gift cards.

“This will really make a big difference to these students and their families,” Buchanan said. “We are grateful to Keller Williams for their support."

“We are glad we could help,” Mary Ann Shelton said. “This is our community and these are our students and we hope we have done a small part to make their Christmas a little better.”
