We Did This Together: Chairman John Eaves Coat Drive A Huge Success

Many thanks to everyone who supported the Fulton County Chairman John Eaves Children's Coat Drive. We collected over 350 coats and distributed over 40 coats to women, men and children who stopped by our event. Donations of clean, gently used children's coats were collected to benefit the Atlanta Day Shelter for Women & Children and My Sister's House, on January 25, 2014.

Chairman John Eaves and the Board of Commissioners Honor Civil Rights Icon Rev. Dr. C.T. Vivian

Fulton County Chairman John Eaves and members of the Fulton County Commission honored the achievements of Rev. Dr. C.T. Vivian today. An author, minister and close ally of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. Vivian is one of the most prominent figures in the non-violent struggle for civil rights as a participant in the Freedom Rides and numerous sit-ins. In November 2013, President Barack Obama cited Dr. Vivian with one of the nation’s highest civilian honors, the Presidential Medal of Freedom. At a reception prior to the Fulton County Board of Commissioners’ first meeting in 2014, county leaders paused to honor Dr. Vivian for more than a half of a century of work on behalf of human rights.
