The C.A.R.E. ( Community Assistance Relief Effort) is a newly established group of volunteers that are reaching out to the community in this tough economy.  Residents of Porterdale experiencing hardships may qualify for assistance through this relief effort.  This organization is operated solely with charitable donations from the community businesses and individuals willing to reach the needs of our community. Examples of the C.A.R.E. group assistance include help with utility bills as well as necessities that may not be included in any type of government assistance.  If you would like to contribute to the C.A.R.E. program, please contact Linda Finger at 678-859-2496.
