While dining on Fado ’ s fabulous appetizers and enjoying the “ sweaterweather ,” members of each group were able to catch up with old friends and make new ones .
Community Service Drive : Stock the Pantry for The Drake House
The Drake House is a 501c3 organization that works to respond to the growing number of single mothers and their children who are experiencing homelessness in North Fulton . The Section ’ s community service drive was a great success ! Many of the Section ’ s members brought pantry items to the September CLE , while others donated via an Amazon wishlist . Ultimately , all items were delivered in person to the Drake House , which was thrilled to receive this outpouring of generosity from the community .
