As we move quickly through the year, I am reminded constantly of why I love the city of Acworth. Our people, our drive, our success and our sense of community truly set Acworth apart. When we all come together, we become an All-American City! Helen Keller once said, “Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much.” Last month, I wrote about investing in your business, and since I am an investment adviser, it only makes sense to stay with the theme of investing. This time, I want to address a different kind of investment — investing in your community. But first, we must understand what the word “community” means. It is not a place, a building or an organization, nor is it an exchange of information over the internet. Community is a feeling and a set of relationships among people who form and maintain communities to meet common needs. It’s all about the Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing people, y’all. elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad Do you remember when your mom used to say, “What goes minim veniam, quis nostrud around comes around” or “Treat others like you would want to be treated?” These statements still ring true to this day. If everyone lived under these golden rules, all of us would be giving back to each other and advancing our community each and every day. I personally have seen most of you invest in our community, so don’t worry, I am not trying to change the world here. I’m merely trying to bring to light one of the greatest characteristics of Acworth — community. Investing in your community can build trust, allow you to get to know your community, help you get connected, form relationships, retain your population or even create super fans. Now, this community investment can be a multitude of things. It could be the mayor dedicating his life to advancing our city’s growth and prosperity or our city government hosting a job fair to help our residents get back to work. It could be our YMCA and local churches feeding the hungry or our local business owners helping with a cleanup day or restoring part of the downtown area together. How about helping someone start a business that will benefit our town in more ways than one? The list goes on and on. Lorem ipsum deeds. dolor sit amet, I consectetuer adipiscing Acworth, keep up the good work and the good elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad promise they eventually will pay off, if theydolore haven’t already. minim veniam, quis nostrud Take comfort in knowing that investing in your community will change someone’s life. Go forth, and maximize your momentum, Acworth!
