Complete Count Committee Athens GA

With 5️⃣ DAYS LEFT to complete your Census, here are 5️⃣ WAYS Census data has and could continue to be used to make Athens a better place:

1️⃣ Businesses use Census data to decide where to open offices and stores, which create jobs. 👨🏿‍🏭🏻‍👨🏻‍⚕️👩🏿‍🔬👩🏽‍🍳👩🏼‍🌾

2️⃣ Schools use Census data to help decide the number of teachers and staff they need to hire, which schools need to be expanded, and more. ‍👩🏾‍🏫👨🏽‍🎓

3️⃣ Real estate developers use Census data to know how many and where to build or revitalize homes. 🏠🏡

4️⃣ Local governments use the Census data for public safety and emergency preparedness. 🚑🧯

5️⃣ Local organizations--including libraries, food banks, after-school programs, health clinics, and more--use Census data to plan their programs and secure the funding they need to better serve all Athenians 👧🏾👨🏻🧓🏼🧕🏾👱🏻‍♂️👩🏿‍🦱👱‍♀️🙋🏿‍♀️👳🏾‍♂️🤱🏼🤰🏿

Listen, we get it. This summer was unlike any other and the Census may have honestly slipped your mind.

But now you've got only 6 days -- until MONDAY, OCTOBER 5 -- to get it done.

So hop over to www.my2020census.gov and invest 10 minutes of your time now to support our schools, hospitals, and community initiatives for the next 10 years.
