Book Nooks Continue Gaining Community Support

The Dalton-Whitfield Archway Partnership’s Book Nook initiative continues to gain community support.  Thanks to the generosity of the Dalton State Athletics Program, the Dalton Rotary Club, and the Community Foundation of Northwest Georgia, funding has been pledged for 18 Book Nooks.  Two book nooks have been placed at White’s Pediatrics with the latest at City of Refuge, an outreach program that meets the physical, mental and spiritual needs of the homeless, low income, poverty level, and indigent families of the Dalton-Whitfield Community.

A picture capturing the recent book nook implementation at City of Refuge can be viewed below.
