After their deaths, civil rights heroes still inspire

Georgia School of Orthodontics Featured in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

We are proud to announce that the Georgia School of Orthodontics was featured in Sunday’s edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution in the article titled “After their deaths, civil rights heroes still inspire.” The piece honors the enduring legacies of civil rights icons Congressman John Lewis and Rev. C.T. Vivian — and highlights how their influence continues to shape lives today. GSO is honored to be a part of this narrative with the recent announcement of the John Lewis Legacy Scholarship — a transformative $8.5 million initiative that will fund 47 full, three-year scholarships over the next 12 years.

We’re humbled to contribute to a legacy that empowers future generations through education and opportunity.
