💙 “𝐈 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐭…𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞.” You may remember Kerry “KJ” Buckner-Frett, who received Cobb Community Foundation scholarships—from @la_parilla and @mariettakiwanis.

Well, Kerry went a little further and recently sent us a thank-you note that we just had to share with the people who helped make this moment possible: our donors and supporters. In his note, Kerry wrote: “My mom has always said, ‘It takes a village to raise a child,’ and today that saying means more to me than ever. Looking back, I realize I didn't just have a village—I had a whole community that showed up for me in ways big and small, often without even realizing the impact they were making.” 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐬 𝐛𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐞, 𝐊𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲. And thank you to the donors who helped make this moment possible. We hope you soar to new heights—and with a spirit like yours, we're pretty sure you'll find many more cheerleaders along the way. 🎓✨ #scholarships #educationmatters #charitablegivingmatters #communityimpact #cobbcounty #cobbcommunityfoundation
