Community Outreach

Backpack Outreach

We are once again partnering with the Marietta Housing Authority and the Y to provide free backpacks filled with school supplies for kids in need. Pick up a backpack in the Main Lobby, fill it with school supplies using the supply list provided, and return by Sunday, July 18. Backpacks will be distributed on Saturday, July 24. If you would like to help with distribution, contact [email protected]

Christmas Wish List

Be a part of the major outreaches we offer each year. From our Freedom Celebration in July and our Back to School event in August to the Thanksgiving Outreach and Christmas Wish List, you have the opportunity to serve guests and those in need. These events are “all hands on deck” events; from providing parking help, to helping a child try on shoes, to providing a Thanksgiving meal to a family in need, to sponsoring a child for Christmas.

Our Partners

YMCA
The YMCA is known as a great place to get healthy and fit, but, one thing you may not know is their commitment to help the surrounding community. North, along with other non-profits, local businesses, and government grants, partner with the YMCA on their projects to help bring food and meals to those in need, provide produce to local “food deserts”, and provide preschool education to poor communities.
