The Optimist Club of West Georgia, in partnership with 24Strong, was honored to donate $300 to help fund a new 3D printer for Central Elementary. Supporting education, creativity, and opportunities for local students is at the heart of what we do, and we are proud to invest in the future of our community.
This gift was made in loving memory of Dr. Holly Pope, a cherished member of our club whose passion for education and dedication to serving others touched so many lives. Holly brought laughter, kindness, and joy to every project, meeting, and cleanup event she was part of.
As we recently completed our first GreenBelt cleanup without her, we were reminded just how much she meant to all of us — from sharing laughs while picking up trash, to teasing her about always being at the beach, to enjoying lunch meetings together at Sutton’s. She is deeply missed.
We hope this 3D printer will inspire creativity and learning for years to come and serve as a lasting reminder of Holly’s love for education and for this community.
Holly, we miss you, we love you, and we hope this gift honors the incredible impact you made on all of us. ❤️
