Back to School at Dunbar Elementary with the Braves & Arrow Exterminators

By Braves Give

During the summer, the Atlanta Braves and Arrow Exterminators hosted several School Supply Drives at Turner Field. Braves infielders Chase d’Arnaud, Brandon Snyder, and pitcher Tyrell Jenkins signed autographs for fans who generously gave a $10 monetary donation or $10 worth of school supplies. Fans donated more than 600 items to support students in need. Arrow Exterminators also held a drive, collecting more than 400 items from clients, family members and friends.

On Thursday, September 15, volunteers from Arrow Exterminators and the Braves front office descended upon Dunbar Elementary School, located in Southeast Atlanta, just minutes away from Turner Field, with more than 1,000 school supplies to deliver to classrooms in every grade. The volunteers read to students, distributed Braves-themed prizes and played baseball-themed BINGO. Braves mascot Homer also made a surprise visit much to the delight of the students and teachers!

Thank you, Arrow Exterminators for such a successful partnership and to our fans for helping to make this significant donation to Dunbar Elementary School possible!
