Page 20 april 3, 2011 StarNews www.starn@wsga.eom f The Carrollton Civitan Club by Jessica Dial-Kirk Civitans are everyday citizens who come together in communities around the world to socialize, learn and serve their neighbors. Civitans are devoted to improving the lives of children and adults with developmental disabilities. Their flagship program is the University of Alabama- Birmingham Civitan International Research Center, the first institution of its kind in the United States to be solely dedicated to research of developmental disabilities. The Carrollton Civitan Club just celebrated their 50th anniversary in October 2009. Recent local projects include, building a park and a ball field, grants to special education teachers, scholarships for Special Education majors at the University of West Georgia, scholarships for children to attend Camp Big Heart for special needs children and adults, and a Christmas party for the special needs children. Teachers with limited budgets may purchase supplies collected by Civitans for their classrooms. Their major fundraiser is selling pecans each fall. Carrollton Civitan Club meets the first and third Thursday of each month at Sunnyside Cafe, Carrollton.
