SUPPORT DUNWOODY STRONG

Support Strong Minds. Strong Choices. Strong Futures.

Dunwoody Strong was featured this week in Rough Draft Atlanta, including a video highlighting our mission and student-focused programming. A story by CBS Atlanta on our community's work to strengthen safety, prevention, and community awareness also aired. This growing recognition underscores the urgency and impact of what we do.

 

Dunwoody Strong is a volunteer-led, parent-driven organization committed to equipping students and families with the tools to support mental health, prevent substance misuse, and build a safer, more connected school community.  

 

We made meaningful progress on these efforts this past academic year, including:

  • Cell phone lockers in every classroom

  • Expert speakers on fentanyl, vaping, substance use and mental health

  • Programming to support the transition to college and beyond 

To sustain these efforts, we need your help! You can donate to Dunwoody Strong through Zeffy, which means 100% of your contributions go directly to our programming. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, all donations are tax-deductible! 

 

To volunteer or suggest programming, visit dunwoodystrong.org.

 

Thank you for your support which enables us to bring in expert resources, expand programming, and continue building a stronger, safer future for Dunwoody High School.

Act FAST to Battle Stroke Campaign

Did you know? A stroke happens every 40 seconds in the United States. A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is blocked or when a blood vessel bursts. Without oxygen, brain cells can be damaged quickly. There are two main types of strokes. An ischemic stroke is caused by a blood clot and is the most common type. A hemorrhagic stroke happens when a blood vessel breaks and bleeds into the brain. A TIA, or mini stroke, is a warning sign of a future stroke.
