Communities In Schools of Greenbrier County (CISGC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization providing integrated student supports within the Greenbrier County public school system for nearly 20 years, is hosting its 5th Annual Holiday Kick Off to fund free services for local students. Founded on the premise that children are unable to learn and thrive if they do not first feel safe and loved, CISGC ensures every child’s basic needs are met. With tailored support plans based on each child’s distinctive needs, CISGC works one-on-one with case-managed students- providing tutoring, mentoring, as well as other supports to promote their overall well-being. Last school year, more than 570 students received individualized support and case-management; and since CISGC provides school-wide programs, more than 4,600 students in Greenbrier County benefit annually.
CISGC’s Holiday Kick Off will be hosted at The Schoolhouse Hotel in White Sulphur Springs on Thursday, Nov. 16, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. The event will consist of live auctions, silent auctions, and prizes for Best Dressed in Holiday Spirit. The cost to attend is $50 per person and includes a delicious spread crafted by The Schoolhouse Hotel and soft drinks. RSVP by submitting payment online at www.cisgc.org or by mailing payment to CISGC- P.O. Box 1188 Lewisburg, WV 24901 (include “tickets” in memo).
Proceeds from the Holiday Kick Off assist CISGC with the continuation of support services in ALL 13 public schools in Greenbrier County.
