Help Keep Cobb Services Thriving

Because of budget cuts, Cobb County service agencies need donations. Here is a list of the agencies and how you can help. The links take you to the donation sites.

Animal Shelter—You can help make a difference in the lives of animals housed at Cobb County Animal Control. Money received will be used to help pay for the care of animals. There are volunteering opportunities, too.

K-9 Donations—The K-9 unit is a vital part of police department’s efforts to protect Cobb County. Police canines perform a broad range of essential functions, including patrol activities, narcotic detection and bomb detection. The police department is accepting donations to aid in the operation of the K-9 unit. Funds will go directly to help replace retired canines and help pay veterinarian expenses and other costs associated with the dogs.

Keep Cobb Beautiful—You can buy all-occasion greeting or holiday cards, or simply make a donation. 

Keep Cobb Beautiful is a nonprofit organization established in 1984 by the Cobb County Board of Commissioners. Its purpose is to assist in establishing, promoting and maintaining a countywide policy for improved environmental and waste management. Keep Cobb Beautiful is made up of concerned people from all walks of life joined together to help the public become more aware and concerned about environmental issues.

Meals On Wheels—Meals on Wheels delivers a hot meal to seniors at their homes 251 days out of the year. Each day, Senior Services prepares 150-180 meals or more than 40,000 a year. More than 400 volunteers make sure that a hot, nutritious meal is served, and ensure that each client is made to feel special with personal visits. All clients are encouraged and given the opportunity to make a donation, but no person is turned away because of an inability to pay. There are volunteering opportunities, too.

Safety Village—You can order a custom brick with your name or donate to help pay for the completion of the new Safety Village. The bricks will be used in a special walkway so, in the future, you can bring your children and grandchildren to the Safety Village to see your name and their names as permanent legacies. You can create your own message or choose from selected designs for your brick.

Senior Wellness Center—Choose from a cookbook, personalized brick or granite bench to help pay for the building of the new Senior Wellness Center.
