Join STAND, Inc. for Back to School with
Greater Piney Grove Baptist Church

Last year, STAND, Inc., in partnership with, and in support of the Greater Piney Grove Baptist Church in Decatur, GA’s Annual Back to School event for the community, co-hosted a fun-filled day which resulted in 100’s of youth receiving new school supplies to begin their new year! In addition to the school supplies given, the community was also given the opportunity to participate in various health screenings, health and educational information was provided and entertainment and door prizes enjoyed!

Last year was a success in the fact that relationships were made and
increased. We experienced increased exposure in the community
and several programmatic goals were achieved.

Past STAND, Inc. participant brings young
 relatives to join in on the festivities.
 

Leadership speaking included Piney Grove pastor. Rev. Flippin and STAND, Inc. executive Director, Charles
