We're thrilled to celebrate a generous $10,000 grant from the @MariettaCountryClub Thanksgiving Classic in support of Circles Cobb! This incredible investment helps strengthen our mission of building relationships across economic lines, removing barriers and empowering families as they work toward lasting economic stability. A special thank-you to the Marietta Country Club Thanksgiving Classic committee and Edith Boy for believing in the power of community and the possibilities we can create together. 📸 Pictured: Nikky Cotton of Circles Cobb with Edith Boy, Marietta Country Club Thanksgiving Classic committee member. Every partnership, every relationship and every act of generosity helps move us closer to a Cobb County where families can thrive. Thank you, Marietta Country Club, for being part of the Circle and helping us change the story!

Big thanks for making a difference in little ways that matter! We're sending a heartfelt THANK YOU to @RaceTrac for generously donating 50 school supply kits to Circles Cobb, which we were delighted to share with our Circle Leaders at our October 6 meeting! The donation grew out of RaceTrac's recent Rise Together Tuesday, an inspiring gathering that brought together community leaders to explore how collaboration and engagement can create new opportunities for families. But RaceTrac didn't stop at conversation. Their team put those ideas into action, providing tangible resources to support families in our community. What was even better? Having our own Circle Leader Myeichia Jackson be featured as a speaker! She shared the same stage with Autumn Sines of @fpcobbcounty, Rodney.Bullard CEO of @wearethesamehouse; Andrea Smith, CRO of Latin American Association @thelaa and Erin Stieglitz, Executive Director of @Bagel.Rescue, with Nicole Willis of RaceTrac Special Projects helping lead the conversation. At Circles Cobb, we know that meaningful change happens when organizations, businesses, and neighbors come together to remove barriers and invest in people. 💙Thank you, RaceTrac, for showing what it means to rise together! Your generosity is another reminder that changing the story takes all of us. #JointheCircleChangetheStory

🗳️ Your voice matters. Your vote matters. And there's still time to make it count! At Circles Cobb, we believe strong communities are built when people are informed, engaged, and empowered to participate in decisions that shape their futures. We were delighted to recently welcome representatives from @lwvmariettacobb, who joined us for an important conversation about civic engagement and the power of participation. As we work together to build a community where every family has the opportunity to thrive, we know that making our voices heard is an important part of the process. 💙 Georgia voters, this is your reminder: Early voting ends TODAY, 30 October! Haven't voted yet? Make your plan, find your polling location and encourage a friend or neighbor to do the same. 📍 Find early voting locations and check your voter information at https://mvp.sos.ga.gov/s/ Let's show up for our community! #CirclesCobb #YourVoteMatters #GetOutTheVote #CivicEngagement #LeagueOfWomenVoters #CobbCounty #GeorgiaVotes #CommunityEmpowerment

We're so grateful to the @capitalcitybank Group Foundation for its generous $5,000 grant in support of Circles Cobb! Community partnerships like this help strengthen our work alongside families as they build relationships, overcome barriers, and pursue lasting economic stability. A special thank-you to Venus Justice, a member of the Capital City Bank team and a dedicated Circles Ally, and Ron King, Market President, for their support and commitment to our community. When local businesses invest in people and possibilities, we move closer to a Cobb County where every family has the opportunity to thrive. Thank you, Capital City Bank Group Foundation, for helping us change the story! #JointheCircleChangetheStory

🏆 An award worth celebrating together! We couldn't let this moment pass without getting the Circles Cobb team together for a photo with our 2026 Doug Hooker Award for Excellence in Workforce Impact from @CareerRiseATL! While the award may have our organization's name on it, the recognition belongs to an entire community of people who believe that meaningful relationships, opportunity and encouragement can change lives. From our dedicated team and volunteers to our incredible Circle Leaders, Allies and community partners, YOU are the reason this work makes a difference. We're proud of what we've accomplished together, grateful to CareerRise for recognizing our impact, and even more excited about the lives we'll continue to touch and the stories we'll help change. Here's to celebrating the people behind the progress!

What do headwinds and tailwinds have to do with being an Ally? Apparently, everything. Listen to what Ally Zonya Brewton has to say about her initial reservations about becoming an Ally and why she ultimately is glad she chose to volunteer with us. We're looking for a few more allies right now. Could that be you? Head to: bit.ly/makemeanally

What difference can one relationship make? Just ask Cheryl. As a Circles Cobb Ally, Cheryl Vincent has had a front-row seat to something extraordinary: watching a Circle Leader grow in confidence, pursue her dreams, and discover #newpossibilities for her future. But here's what makes being an Ally so special: You're not there to fix someone's life. You're there to be a friend, celebrate their victories, encourage their #goals and remind them they're not alone. And sometimes, the most meaningful #transformation happens through something as simple as showing up, listening and believing in someone. ✨ We need more people like Cheryl. And maybe that person is YOU. Circles Cobb is looking for compassionate, committed community members who are ready to build meaningful relationships and help families working toward economic stability. You don't need to have all the answers. You just need a willingness to show up and be part of someone's circle. 💙 Ready to change someone's story - and perhaps your own?

We are looking for a few more good allies. What’s an ally? It’s a friend. Yep. A friend. Can you do that? Of course you can! Sign up here to learn more right now: bit.ly/makemeanally

Last night’s Ally Info Session was PACKED! 💙 Thank you to everyone who joined us to learn about saying yes to connection, friendship, and transformation with Circles Cobb. Did you miss it? Please email us at info@circlescobb.org to join our waitlist as soon as you can. We can always use a good Ally! We’re grateful for your interest in becoming an Ally and helping build a community where neighbors support one another toward greater financial stability. 🫶

We're so elated to share this win for our community and everyone who is part of it! Circles Cobb just received @CareerRiseATL’s 2026 Doug Hooker Award for Excellence in Workforce Impact! Every day, we see what’s possible when people have a community in their corner as they pursue their goals. This award celebrates that shared work. To our Circle Leaders, Allies, volunteers and partners: thank you for showing up, building meaningful relationships, and helping create new possibilities. Thank you, CareerRise, for this amazing surprise recognition! We’re grateful to keep building community to end poverty in Cobb County together. 📷 Pictured L - R: Lynette Jackson, JPMorgan @Chase; Cynthia Crawford, Circles Cobb; Barbara Garner, Circles Cobb; Jacque Joyce, CareerRise; Jamie Jordan, @Accenture #CirclesCobb #CareerRise #WorkforceImpact #CobbCounty

Sometimes it's the little impacts that mean the most. "The thing that struck me more than anything else is that in five or six months with Circles and with my Circle Leader, I feel like I've had more impact than 30 years worth of writing checks," Todd shares. "To see the change not only in her life, but the little impacts it's having on her husband, her children and her grandchildren - I feel like I'm having an impact on three generations of this family. It's remarkable!" For Todd Youngblood, community service once looked a lot like it does for many successful professionals: writing checks to support causes he cared about. After a 40+ year career in sales, marketing and executive leadership, Todd has dedicated this chapter of his life to what he calls "paying his civic rent" - investing his time, talent and experience to strengthen the community around him. As a Circles Cobb Ally, Board member and Chair of our Sponsorship Committee, he's discovered something powerful about becoming a friend to a family on their journey toward economic mobility. Financial support and checks are always needed, but Todd's story is a reminder that relationships have the power to transform lives in ways that money alone never can. Through encouragement, accountability, friendship and genuine connection, Allies help create the supportive community families need to move toward lasting stability and opportunity. Thank you, Todd, for your leadership, your heart for service and for demonstrating what becomes possible when we move beyond simply supporting a mission and become part of it. 💙 BE AN ALLY LIKE TODD: Join us for our Ally Info Session on Thursday 8 Oct. 2026, 6-7:30 pm. Dinner will be provided! Go to bit.ly/circlesally to sign up.

👀 An eviction rarely starts with a notice on the door. Often, the warning signs come much earlier: a missed rent payment, an unexpected expense, falling further behind each month or realizing next month’s rent simply isn’t going to be there. In Episode 3 of Eviction Stories & Steps, Greg Hill and Autumn Sines of Family Promise of Cobb County @fpcobb talk about recognizing those warning signs - and why taking action early can give renters more time to communicate, explore resources and understand their options. If you’re worried about making rent, you don’t have to wait until it becomes a crisis to start looking for help. ▶️ Watch 03 | Eviction Stories & Steps: Understanding the Warning Signs: bit.ly/evictionwarningsigns Find more resources at CirclesCobb.org/evictions. ___ Join the Circle.

Meet our Board Member, Jeff Jernigan! Jeff has spent 40 years with @Pinkerton_and_Laws, America's leading hospitality contractor, working his way from Assistant Project Manager all the way to President. Along the way he's overseen more than $1.5 billion in construction, including over 180 hotels, 4 million square feet of retail, and 3,000 multi-family units. That same steady, build-it-right leadership is what he brings to the Circles Cobb board. Beyond the jobsite, Jeff chairs Missions for the North Georgia Conference of the Global Methodist Church and serves communities from Cobb County to Nigeria and Central Europe. He's even a certified Faith and Finances facilitator, work that lines up directly with what Circles is all about: helping families build a path from poverty to prosperity. Thank you for leading with us, Jeff.

Kenneth’s got a car! 🎉🎉🎉 With only one vehicle for a busy family, getting everyone to work, school, appointments and everything in between wasn’t always easy. Purchasing a car was one of Kenneth’s big goals - and now he's reached it. When a friend of Circles shared that they were selling an affordable used car, Kenneth was able to arrange a payment plan that worked for him. This was not a donation - it was an opportunity made possible through connection, trust and Kenneth’s commitment to moving forward. This milestone means greater flexibility, independence and opportunity for Kenneth and his family. Because of this car, he's now been able to secure an amazing new job at the City of Austell! 🎉🎉🎉 Please join us in celebrating Kenneth and this exciting step toward his goals!

There are 12 new reasons to celebrate at Circles Cobb! 🎉 Please help us welcome Cohort Four - 12 new Circle Leaders beginning their two year Circles journey TODAY! Over the coming weeks, they’ll be setting goals, building new skills, strengthening their finances and laying the groundwork for the futures they want for themselves and their families. And we’re so excited to have them in the Circle. 🥳 But here’s an important part of the Circles model: they won’t make that journey alone. After completing their initial training, each Circle Leader is paired with volunteer Allies who walk alongside them - offering encouragement, connections, perspective and a consistent community of support as they work toward their goals. And with 12 new Circle Leaders, we need more people willing to step into the Circle with them. Curious about becoming an Ally? Come learn what it actually looks like at our upcoming Ally Info Session. 📅 Thursday, October 8 | 6–7:30 PM @ Milford Baptist Church 🍽️ Dinner provided 🔗 bit.ly/circlesally For today, though: Welcome, Cohort Four! We’re so glad you’re here. 💙 Join the Circle. Change the Story.

What does it actually take to be an Ally? You don’t need to have all the answers. You don’t need to be a financial expert, life coach or professional problem-solver. You just need to be willing to show up. Circles Cobb Allies walk alongside our Circle Leaders as they work toward the goals they’ve set for themselves — listening, encouraging, sharing connections, celebrating progress and sometimes simply reminding someone that they have people in their corner. As two of our current Allies put it: 💬 “Being an Ally has reminded me how powerful it is simply to show up, listen, encourage, and believe in someone.” — Daliah 💬 “Showing up matters.” — Jen Curious whether becoming an Ally might be for you? Come find out! Join us for our upcoming Ally Info Session to meet the Circles Cobb family, learn how it works and ask all your questions. Dinner is on us! 😊 📅 Thursday, October 8 | 6–7:30 PM @ Milford Baptist Church 🔗 Register: bit.ly/circlesally Join the Circle. Change the Story.

🗽We remember the nearly 3,000 lives taken on September 11, 2001. We honor the first responders, service members, families and countless others whose lives were forever changed. And we remember something else from the days that followed: people showed up for one another. Neighbors helped neighbors. Strangers became helpers. Communities rallied around people who were hurting. Across differences and circumstances, people recognized how deeply we need one another. At Circles Cobb, we see the power of community every day. While the circumstances are very different, the principle remains: when life becomes difficult, no one should have to navigate it alone. On this 25th anniversary, we remember those we lost - and honor their memory by continuing to build communities where people care for, connect with and show up for one another. We will never forget.

Our Circle is growing! Please help us welcome three wonderful new members of the Circles Cobb team! Each brings a unique combination of experience, heart and commitment to helping individuals and families thrive - and we’re so excited to have them in the Circle. 🩵 Elaine Kelly | Childcare Coordinator Elaine brings experience spanning early childhood education, corporate administration and ministry leadership, along with a lifelong heart for children and families. From childcare and youth ministry to leading sewing and art programs in Cobb County schools, she is passionate about creating spaces where children feel supported, valued and encouraged to thrive. 💚 Nichelle Walker | Circles Coach Nichelle is a community-minded leader with more than a decade of experience serving individuals, families and communities. With strengths in administration, teaching and faith-based leadership, she is passionate about connecting people with practical support, hope and opportunities to move forward. 🧡 Nikky Cotton | Training Facilitator Nikky brings something especially meaningful to this role: she knows Circles from the inside. A former Circle Leader and Circles Cobb graduate, she now brings her lived experience alongside her professional expertise as a Certified Mental Health First Aid instructor and Community Resiliency Model Trainer to help equip our newest Circle Leaders for their own journeys. We couldn't be happier to have Elaine, Nichelle and Nikky helping us do this work. Welcome to the team, ladies! 💙 Join the Circle. Change the Story. #CirclesCobb #JoinTheCircleChangeTheStory #CobbCounty #EconomicMobility #CommunityImpact #NonprofitLeadership #StrongerTogether

Our Circle Leaders work. They raise families. They juggle bills, transportation, housing, childcare and all the unexpected things life can throw their way. And week after week, they keep showing up - for their families, for their goals and for themselves. Because one of the things we know at Circles Cobb is that working hard and earning an income doesn’t always mean making ends meet is easy. That’s why our work goes beyond simply telling people to “work harder.” We build community around people who are already doing the work - helping them grow income, strengthen finances, expand their networks and create pathways toward lasting economic stability. So this Labor Day, we celebrate our Circle Leaders - and all of our Cobb neighbors working hard to build a better future for themselves and the people they love. We see you. We celebrate you. Keep going. Happy Labor Day. 💙

🥹THIS is what we mean when we say, “Join the Circle. Change the Story.” When Dominique first applied for a Habitat home, the answer was no. But that wasn’t the end of her story. After being referred to Circles Cobb, she got to work - increasing her income, building her savings and strengthening her finances, all while working two jobs and raising her newly adopted niece and nephew. And then she tried again. This time, the answer was a YES!! Last week, we had the absolute joy of joining Dominique, her Circles family, Habitat for Humanity of NW Metro Atlanta and so many of the people who helped make this moment possible to dedicate her beautiful new home. As Dominique says, “Just because God says no right now doesn’t mean no forever!” Dominique, YOU did this. We are incredibly proud of you - and so grateful for every nonprofit, community partner, Ally, volunteer and friend who helped surround her along the way. A dream deferred is not a dream denied. Welcome home, Dominique! 💙 🎥 Want to hear Dominique tell her story? Watch her 2.5-minute story at bit.ly/dominiquecircle.

Circles Cobb had a wonderful time at the 5th Annual Taste of Mableton - a celebration designed to bring together the residents, businesses, nonprofits, civic organizations and leaders who make this community what it is. And our Executive Director, Barbara Garner, got an added bonus: catching up with some of her new #LeadershipCobb Class of 2027 classmates! Barbara enjoyed connecting with Cassandra Brown, Mableton City Councilmember, and Naceo Denney, Area Manager with Georgia Power. Our Program Manager Cynthia Crawford was there enjoying the day, too! For us, that's one of the best parts of getting out into the Cobb community. Relationships matter. The more we know one another, understand the work happening around us and build connections across our community, the more we can accomplish together. Here’s to new friends, stronger connections and a great LC27 year ahead! 🎉 @mabletonimprovementcoalition @cobbchamber @cityofmabletonga @georgiapower

Become an Ally and say yes to transformation - not just for someone else but for yourself as well. Want to learn more? Join us for our Ally Info Session on Thursday 8 Oct. 2026, 6-7:30 pm. Dinner will be provided! Go to bit.ly/circlesally to sign up. Need more reasons to join our Circle? Here are 3! 1. You Have the Power to Change Lives - You have the ability to guide someone through life’s challenges, lift them up when they stumble, and show them what is possible when they believe in themselves. 2. It’s About Connection, Not Just Giving Back - This is not a one-sided act of service - it’s a journey you take together. You receive just as much as you give (some would say even more!). 3. Empower Someone to Break the Cycle of Poverty - Becoming an Ally is about more than just offering advice. You’re making a friend and helping them find the tools, strategies, and inner strength to overcome obstacles and create a future they may not have thought possible.

For Circles Cobb Board Member Linda Beggs, service has never been just another committee assignment - it's a way of life! As Circles Cobb's Board Secretary and Chair of our Governance & Nominating Committee, Linda brings decades of experience helping organizations build stronger cultures, navigate change and develop effective leaders. But ask anyone who knows her, and they'll tell you her greatest strength isn't found on a résumé. It's found in moments like these. Whether she's helping shape the future of Circles Cobb in the boardroom or serving dinner alongside fellow volunteers on a Tuesday evening, Linda leads with humility, compassion and a genuine heart for people. Her steady leadership reminds us that lasting change happens when talented people choose to invest their time, gifts and hearts in others. We're incredibly grateful for everything Linda does to help make Circles Cobb stronger!

We've been keeping a REALLY good secret. At last week's Night of Inspiration, we finally got to share Dominique's story - one we've been so excited to tell and somehow managed to keep off social media until the big reveal! Dominique Allen, a Circle Leader from Cohort 2, came to Circles Cobb while caring for her niece and nephew, working two jobs and looking for support. Along the way, she set financial goals, learned to save, built her confidence, discovered the power of asking for help - and kept moving toward a dream that once felt out of reach: #homeownership. Dominique will be the first to tell you that the journey wasn't perfect. Saving wasn't always consistent. Trusting new people wasn't always easy. But she kept hearing the same words from the people in her Circle: Trust the process. And TODAY, that process brought us here. 🥹🔑🏡 Today was Dominique's Habitat home dedication! @habitatnwma From working toward financial readiness to standing in front of a home of her own, this is what progress can look like - one goal, one relationship, one encouraging phone call and one step at a time. Dominique, we are SO incredibly proud of you and your family. Congratulations, HOMEOWNER! 🎥 Don't miss our Facebook + Instagram Stories right now — we've got bonus photos and video from today's dedication! 👀🏡

What a night! Our 2026 #NightofInspiration was a beautiful reminder of what can happen when a community comes together around possibility, progress and one another. To every sponsor who invested in this work, every partner who helped make the evening possible, and every guest who joined us to celebrate our Circle Leaders: thank you. Your support extends far beyond one incredible evening. It helps create the relationships, resources and opportunities that allow individuals and families to pursue their goals, strengthen their financial futures and write new chapters for themselves. And to our Circle Leaders - the heart of the night - we hope you felt just how many people are standing beside you, celebrating how far you’ve come and cheering for everything still ahead. 💫 We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who made Night of Inspiration a night to remember. 📸 And trust us…you’re going to want to see these photos. More from this beautiful evening coming soon! #NightOfInspiration #CirclesCobb #CommunityInAction #EconomicMobility #StrongerTogether #CobbCounty #CommunityImpact #ChangingTheStory

Circles Cobb presents: Eviction Stories & Steps. Real stories. Practical steps. A path forward. What if everything you thought you knew about eviction… wasn't the whole story? Today, Circles Cobb is proud to introduce Eviction Stories & Steps - a new video series created to bring real stories, practical information and greater understanding to one of the most difficult experiences thousands of our neighbors face. You'll hear from people who have experienced eviction themselves - and learn why it can happen in ways you might never expect. You'll hear from experts about rights, resources and what to do before, during and after an eviction. And most importantly, if you're facing eviction yourself, we want you to hear this: You are not alone. This series is for you. It's for someone you love. It's for housing and property management professionals. And it's for anyone willing to look beyond an eviction notice and understand the person and the story behind it. 🎥 Eviction Stories & Steps is now available on the Circles Cobb YouTube channel: bit.ly/evictionsplaylist Watch the series. Share it with someone who needs it. And help us change the story. Join the Circle. Change the Story. | ⭐Sponsored by: @PodiumATL

Two years. So many goals reached. So much growth. And still, so much possibility ahead. Last week, we gathered for one of our favorite Circles Cobb traditions: New Chapter Celebration Night - an intimate evening dedicated to celebrating our Circle Leaders before we bring that celebration to the big stage at Night of Inspiration. Our Cohort 2 Circle Leaders have spent two full years showing up, setting goals, navigating challenges, building relationships and continuing to create the lives they envision for themselves. And this night was simply our opportunity to say: We see you. We celebrate you. We believe in you. And we will always be cheering you on. Each of our Circle Leaders received a gold circle necklace commemorating her journey, along with a beautiful personalized journal created especially for her. A HUGE thank you to Cohort 2 Ally Zonya Brewton, who poured so much love into making the evening special - from the gorgeous personalized journals to the beautiful cupcake display and all the thoughtful details that made our Circle Leaders feel celebrated. Because while this chapter may be ending, their stories certainly aren't. There are more goals to reach, more dreams to pursue and many more chapters still to be written. And now we can't wait to celebrate these incredible women with all of you at Night of Inspiration on Thursday, August 20! To our Cohort 2 Circle Leaders: this moment is yours. And we couldn't be prouder. ✨ Join the Circle. Change the Story.

This summer, Circles Cobb Board Member Markus Scott and the team at @EyeQMonitoring served three meals for our families, creating opportunities for connection, encouragement and community around the dinner table. As Chairman and CEO of EyeQ Monitoring, Markus has led the company's remarkable growth while earning recognition as an EY Entrepreneur Of The Year® Southeast Award winner for his purpose-driven leadership and innovation. But beyond his professional accomplishments, Markus continually demonstrates a heart for serving others and strengthening the Cobb County community.

We are grateful to have you as part of our community.

Just a few weeks ago, Circles Cobb welcomed Ann Carpenter from the Atlanta Regional Commission | @planatlanta to what we call our "Big View" gathering for an important conversation about housing stability and economic mobility across our region. From eviction trends to long-term housing strategies, the discussion reinforced something we see every day: stable housing is foundational to helping families build financial security and create lasting opportunities. We're grateful for partners like the Atlanta Regional Commission who bring valuable research and regional insights to the table, helping communities work together toward solutions that create brighter futures for everyone.

A big thank you to the @atlantaYMCA for bringing a mini camp and member information session to our Circles Cobb families! It was a fun evening filled with activities, new connections and opportunities for families to learn about programs that support healthy, active lives. Partnerships like these help remove barriers and connect families with resources that strengthen our community long after summer ends. Thank you to the YMCA team for spending the evening with us - we're grateful for your partnership and look forward to more opportunities to work together!

As a valued annual sponsor, venue sponsor and faithful community partner, North Metro Church | @wearenorthmetro has supported Circles Cobb in countless ways throughout the year. From providing beautiful space for our events to sponsoring and serving meals, sharing volunteer opportunities with their congregation and investing financially in our mission, they continue to demonstrate what it means to serve the community. Their partnership helps create places where relationships are built, hope grows and families are surrounded by a community committed to lasting economic mobility. Thank you, North Metro Church, for walking alongside Circles Cobb and the families we serve. We are grateful for your generosity, hospitality and heart for our community.

This past weekend, our team was out across Cobb County connecting with families, sharing resources and celebrating the excitement of back-to-school season. From community events in Mableton and Powder Springs to networking with local partners, we're grateful for every opportunity to build relationships and support the communities we serve. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello - we loved seeing so many familiar faces and meeting new ones. Here's to a successful school year for all our students, families, and educators! #CirclesCobb #CommunityConnections #BackToSchool #CobbCounty #EconomicMobility #StrongerTogether

This week's conversation at Atlanta Regional Commisssion | @planatlanta centered on one sobering reality: Metro Atlanta ranks 50th out of 50 large U.S. metro areas for upward economic mobility. But it also focused on something even more important - what we can do together to change that. This week, our Executive Director @Barbara.B.Garner joined regional leaders at the Atlanta Regional Commission's Opportunity Rising Economic Mobility Workshop to discuss what it'll take to change this reality for Greater Atlanta citizens. Barbara participated in the "Closer to Home: Metro Atlanta Models in Practice" panel along with community leader Carol Naughton | @crn1984 of @PurposeBuiltCommunities. It was a truly excellent discussion moderated by @Milton.Little, President & CEO of @UnitedWayAtlanta. At Circles Cobb, we believe lasting economic mobility begins with relationships, accountability and community. Every day, we work alongside families to build the connections, resources and support they need to achieve long-term financial stability. Thank you to the Atlanta Regional Commission for convening leaders from across the region to share ideas, strengthen partnerships and move from conversation to action. We're proud to be part of the work to create more pathways to opportunity for families across Metro Atlanta. Learn more at circlescobb.org.

When Circle Leader Nikky faced an unexpected setback on her journey, her Circles community stepped in with encouragement, accountability and the reminder that obstacles don't mean your story is over! She shared her experience about Circles Cobb at the @aspiringcommunityentrepreneurs Bootcamp this spring: "They gave me the tools and support I needed to keep going... and not to say, 'Well, I guess it's not my time.'" That's the power of community. Sometimes the difference between giving up and moving forward is knowing someone believes in you. Join the Circle. Change the Story.

Today, we remember and honor the life of Daryl Price. Daryl faithfully served as a member of the Circles Cobb Board of Directors, bringing a servant's heart, steadfast faith and deep love for our community to everything he did. Throughout his life, Daryl dedicated himself to building people, strengthening communities and walking alongside others with compassion and encouragement. Whether serving the Church, mentoring leaders or supporting the mission of Circles Cobb, he lived a life marked by generosity, humility and purpose. While we mourn his passing, we are grateful for the lasting impact he made on our organization and the many lives he touched. His legacy of service will continue to inspire us for years to come. Please join us in lifting Daryl's wife, Kim, their children, grandchildren and the entire Price family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. "Well done, good and faithful servant." - Matthew 25:23 | Obituary: bit.ly/darylgprice

Most people know Goodwill as a place to donate clothes. What many don't realize is that @Goodwill_NG is also one of the region's largest workforce development organizations, helping people build careers, earn certifications and connect with life-changing opportunities. At a recent presentation, Demarcus Fields shared just a few of the programs available through Goodwill, including: 🔹 Forklift Certification 🔹 Welding Training 🔹 Supply Chain & CDL Programs 🔹 Construction Training 🔹 Custodial & Facility Maintenance Certifications 🔹 IT Support Training (CompTIA A+) 🔹 Heat Pump Maintenance & HVAC Skills 🔹 Entrepreneurship Coaching through GoodBiz Even more impressive? Many of these programs are offered at no cost to participants through workforce development partnerships and funding sources. Some programs even provide paid training opportunities while participants learn. One standout statistic: Goodwill's Heat Pump Maintenance Program currently boasts an employment success rate of approximately 92%. Goodwill also works closely with veterans, individuals with disabilities, returning citizens, aspiring entrepreneurs and others facing barriers to employment, helping connect them with training, certifications and career pathways that can create long-term economic mobility. The takeaway? Goodwill isn't just helping people find jobs—it's helping people build careers, businesses and brighter futures. That's a mission worth knowing about.

Join us in celebrating one of our own, Deja Boney, as she begins an exciting new internship with the @CityofAtlantaGA's Office of the Chief Information Officer Administration! 🎉 For quite some time as a young and promising KSU student, Deja has been an incredible part of the Circles Cobb family. Her dedication, professionalism, positive attitude and willingness to jump in wherever needed have made a lasting impact on our team and the families we serve. While we'll certainly miss seeing her around on Tuesday nights, we couldn't be more proud to watch her continue growing, learning and pursuing her goals. Opportunities like this are exactly why we invest in young leaders, and Deja is a shining example of what's possible when talent, hard work and determination come together. We're cheering her on every step of the way and can't wait to celebrate when she walks across that stage at Kennesaw State University. The future is bright, Deja - and we're honored to be part of your journey. 💙 Please join us in congratulating Deja on this exciting next chapter!

Sometimes it's the little impacts that mean the most. "The thing that struck me more than anything else is that in five or six months with Circles and with my Circle Leader, I feel like I've had more impact than 30 years worth of writing checks," Todd shares. "To see the change not only in her life, but the little impacts it's having on her husband, her children and her grandchildren - I feel like I'm having an impact on three generations of this family. It's remarkable!" For Todd Youngblood, community service once looked a lot like it does for many successful professionals: writing checks to support causes he cared about. After a 40+ year career in sales, marketing and executive leadership, Todd has dedicated this chapter of his life to what he calls "paying his civic rent" - investing his time, talent and experience to strengthen the community around him. As a Circles Cobb Ally, Board member and Chair of our Sponsorship Committee, he's discovered something powerful about becoming a friend to a family on their journey toward economic mobility. Financial support and checks are always needed, but Todd's story is a reminder that relationships have the power to transform lives in ways that money alone never can. Through encouragement, accountability, friendship and genuine connection, Allies help create the supportive community families need to move toward lasting stability and opportunity. Thank you, Todd, for your leadership, your heart for service and for demonstrating what becomes possible when we move beyond simply supporting a mission and become part of it. 💙

🚗 "Your assistance has been more than financial help - it has been a real source of encouragement and hope! I had reached a point where I was feeling very discouraged, and your support came at exactly the right time." When your car breaks down, so much more is at risk than transportation. For many families, it can mean missing work, losing income or watching months of hard-earned progress come to a halt. That's why we're so grateful for community partners like 10 Women of Hope and Massey Automotive, who recently came together to help one of our Circle Leaders, Kim, get safely back on the road. Through a generous grant from @10WomenofHope and an at-cost repair from @MasseyAutomotive, Kim was able to repair her vehicle - removing a major barrier to getting to work and continuing her journey toward financial stability. This is what community looks like. When collaborative nonprofits, community-minded businesses and generous supporters work together, we're not just repairing cars - we're helping people keep moving toward brighter futures. Thank you, 10 Women of Hope and Massey Automotive, for helping us change the story, one act of kindness at a time. 💙 #CirclesCobb #JoinTheCircle #ChangeTheStory #CommunityPartners #EconomicMobility #ThankYou

Circles Cobb Ally Michael “Q” Quinlan brings decades of financial leadership, business expertise and a heart for service to everything he does. A retired CPA and former Senior VP of Accounting & Finance for Noble Investment Group, Q spent more than 20 years helping organizations grow through sound financial stewardship and strategic leadership.

When asked what he found most interesting regarding his experience with Circles Cobb, Q explains, "Talking with our Circle Leaders, it became apparent to me how much of their time is spent simply trying to make ends meet. In spite of those struggles, they are so kind, so willing to give back to the community and incredibly appreciative of the support around them." Whether he's mentoring a young person or being an amazing Ally to a Circle Leader, Q is passionate about building genuine relationships, encouraging growth and helping others recognize their potential. His willingness to share his experience, wisdom and encouragement makes him a powerful agent of change at Circles Cobb. Thanks for everything you do, Q!

This Father's Day, we're celebrating Kenneth. A great dad isn't measured by perfection - he's measured by his willingness to show up, grow and keep moving forward for the people who depend on him. Kenneth embodies that spirit. From building his business to increase his family's income, to completing his journey as a Circle Leader, to leading by example in his home and community, he's 100% shown what it looks like to invest in a better future! His story reminds us that when one person chooses growth, the impact reaches far beyond themselves. Families grow stronger. Opportunities expand. Children see what's possible. Today, we honor Kenneth and all the fathers and father figures who continue to lead with courage, commitment and love. Happy Father's Day from Circles Cobb. 💙 #FathersDay #CirclesCobb #JoinTheCircleChangeTheStory #FamilyLeadership #BreakingTheCycle

🖤💚❤️ What an AMAZING way to celebrate Juneteenth! Two of our Circle Leaders just received a check for $1400 ($700 each)! Why, you ask? Because they both saved at least $600 over the past few months AND they raised their credit score by at least 30 points. That's the work we're talking about: saving + better credit = better opportunities. Way to go ladies! And a huge thank you to @UnitedWayAtlanta for matching their savings and credit wins. Your partnership motivates us all! Want to be a Circle Leader with us? Now is the time to apply (before 30 June!): circlescobb.org/apply

This recent #MentalHealth Awareness Block Party in South Cobb was a full-circle moment for Circles. As part of our Big View initiative, Circle Leaders (program participants) and Allies (their support system) work together to identify barriers that make it harder for individuals and families to thrive. Cohort 1 chose an issue that continues to impact communities across Cobb County: mental health. That decision led us to the Community Resiliency Model (CRM), a practical approach that helps people better understand and manage stress, adversity, and trauma. Thanks to a grant opportunity through @CobbCollaborative, Circles Cobb's Nikky was able to complete CRM's Train-the-Trainer program and become a certified trainer. This event was one of the first opportunities to put that training into action alongside fellow Circle Leaders, Allies, volunteers and community partners. What started as a conversation around a table became REAL action right here in Cobb. We're grateful to everyone who helped make this event possible and proud to continue supporting the mental health and well-being of our neighbors throughout Cobb County. Because stronger communities start with healthier, more resilient people. @traumaresourceinstitute @cobbpolicedept @cobbcommunityfoundation #CirclesCobb #MentalHealthAwareness #CommunityResilience #BigView #SouthCobb #CobbCounty #CommunityImpact

🎉 BIG NEWS FOR CIRCLES COBB! We are honored to share that Circles Cobb has once again been selected as a recipient of the @NorthGeorgiaStateFair Giving Campaign and was awarded a $15,000 community grant! This investment helps us continue walking alongside families working to achieve long-term financial stability and economic mobility right here in Cobb County. Every dollar strengthens our ability to provide support, relationships, resources, and opportunities that help our Circle Leaders build brighter futures for themselves and their families. We are deeply grateful to the North Georgia State Fair, the Cobb County Fair Association, and everyone who believes in the power of community-driven change. Thank you for investing in hope, opportunity, and the potential of our neighbors. Together, we're proving that when a community comes together, lives change.

When people think of leadership, they often picture board meetings, strategy sessions and important decisions. But at Circles Cobb, leadership also looks like serving dinner. Recently, Board Member Melissa Gilbert and her husband, Parker, volunteered during our Tuesday night community meal, helping create a welcoming space for participants and families gathered around the table. A Marietta native and highly respected estate planning attorney with more than 28 years of experience, Melissa has dedicated her career to helping families plan for the future. She brings that same heart for service to Circles Cobb, where she shares her time, expertise and leadership in support of our mission. What we appreciate most about Melissa is that she doesn't just believe in the work - we see her actively showing up for it. Thank you, Melissa, for your servant leadership, your commitment to our community and your belief in the power of helping people build brighter futures! 💙 Join us in thanking Melissa for the difference she makes. #CirclesCobb #BoardSpotlight #ServantLeadership #CommunityImpact #LeadershipInAction #MariettaGA
