The Tift County Council on Child Abuse is FLAMINGO FLOCKING once again in an effort to raise awareness and funds for the prevention of child abuse and neglect. Every February, for more than 25 years, flocks of the lovable pink plastic birds have arrived and will appear daily in different yards across Tift County. Those who find a flock of flamingos inhabiting their yard are asked to pay a small “fee” to the Tift County Council on Child Abuse to ensure their safe removal. As a bonus, the donor gets to choose the next temporary residence of the birds. This is a fun way to raise funds for the fight against child abuse, and as the flocks travel to homes throughout Tift County, people passing by are also reminded of the urgent need to protect and serve our children. If you would like to be part of this event, please call us at (229) 382-5172. You may also help by using the QR Code to donate to this fundraiser. We are always looking for new members, as well! Won’t you join us!
