Scottdale Early Learning, Inc. recently brought on four new board members as well as a new development director.

Scottdale Early Learning is a non-profit that has been around for 41 years now, offering education to children of lower brackets of income in the community. Students’ ages range from six-week old infants to five years olds.

Anita Douglas was named the new director of development. She graduated from Kennesaw State University, and is currently pursuing her Masters Degree in Public Administration from the university as well.

“Anita has already been helping Scottdale Early Learning remotely with grant-writing assistance for about two years, and she brings a wealth of fundraising experience from both her volunteer and professional work with the National Coalition of Black Women, Hurt2Heal, Hosea Helps, FlyChicks and Feed My Lambs,” Scottdale Early Learning Executive Director Maryum Lewis Gibson said in a recent press release.
