Message from Rosemary Q. Steele
The Thomasville Housing Authority's "Build Better Lives" Newsletter mission is to keep our residents, community partners, and the Thomasville Community at large informed of the THA organization's developments and progress.
The Leadership Team of THA knows that the "Building Better Lives" Newsletter is an essential way for residents to learn about all the programs and services that the THA and its partners are providing. The participation of the residents is valuable to our success in providing you with what you need to be successful.
THA developed the "Build Better Lives" Newsletter and the THA website to keep residents informed and in the know. It is the continued hope that this form of communication provides you the opportunity to increase awareness and understanding of the THA mission and goals to a better life for the residents, THA's Leadership Team believes through information to "Learn More, Know More," provides empowerment, transparency, and deeper understanding in these uncertain times.
Build a Bear Workshop
The children were most pleased at building their own bear. Build-A-Bear's broader mission to add a little more heart to life including sharing comfort, connection and playing with children, especially those who need it most. This type of event is our way of turning awareness into action, giving families a simple, yet fun way to make a heartfelt impact on the life of a child."
