studied the characteristics of
neighborhoods and communities
including citizenship, laws, hu

producers and consumers.
Mrs. McClung’s class created a

with urban, suburban and rural
areas, an industrial park and natu

names for the community and an
election was held to determine the
best name.
The Lee County Board of Elec

Each of you represent some
quality of life investment,” said
Joel Wernick, Phoebe President
and CEO, addressing eight agen
cies that received a total of
$129,00 in grant awards. Recipi
ents ranged from a 24-hour resi
dential substance abuse rehabili
tation program to a food bank
serving Southwest Georgia.
Moving outside the hospital's
walls and addressing health ho
listically is part of the Phoebe
philosophy of making upstream
investments. The success of the
hospital, said Wernick, involves
perpetuating success in a bigger
way and extending the hospital’s
mission to help all those in need
while also changing lives.
Grants are awarded in the fol
lowing categories: essential ser
vices, building individual health
status and building community.
Community Visions seeks to le
verage existing community re
sources through partnership and
funding ventures that have poten
tial to address some of our
community’s greatest needs. A
volunteer community benefits
board made up of local citizens
judges the proposals quarterly.
The following agencies re
ceived awards:
Food Bank $50,000 “Drive
Out Hunger” - The purchase of
a refrigerated truck will enable
the Food Bank to “drive out hun
