Gwinnett County Solicitor-General Lisamarie N. Bristol will donate items collected from the recent “Dog Days of Summer” drive to Ahimsa House, an organization that supports victims of domestic violence and their pets in Georgia.
The donation event is scheduled for Wednesday, August 20, 2025, at 10 a.m. It will take place at the Gwinnett Justice and Administrative Center in Lawrenceville.
