Paulding Christmas, Inc. is a non-profit organization that provides new
toys at Christmas time for approximately 1,800 underprivileged children ages infant through 18. "Pennies for Paulding" is the biggest fund drive of the year that occurs over a ten day period just prior to Thanksgiving. Last year our school system raised a little over $50,000. The toys provided from this fund drive, help to make the holidays a little brighter for the children of Paulding County. This project also provides students and staff members with a meaningful opportunity to help others in our community. Please join us by donating coins, cash, or checks (payable to Paulding Christmas). Money can be sent in to your child’s school or brought to GA Heritage Bank at the Avenues in West Cobb. All proceeds directly benefit children in Paulding County.
