Arrow Sponsors Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Christmas Parade

ATLANTA – Atlanta-based Arrow Exterminators has been entertaining spectators in downtown Atlanta for over 19 years by sponsoring and participating in the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA) Christmas Parade. 

Over 200 team members and their families braved the cold on Dec. 3 to walk in the parade and expertly maneuver the two-story balloons of the Three Blind Mice down the route. 

The Christmas parade, the largest parade in the southeast, kicks off the holiday season with thousands of people lining the streets of Midtown to watch the floats, giant helium-filled balloons, marching bands, performers and even an appearance from Santa Claus. All the proceeds from the parade benefit the Friends Funding Goals for Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta which supports the lifesaving research and treatments provided by CHOA.

“The parade has become a meaningful holiday tradition for many of our team members, some of whose own lives have been touched by the valuable services provided by Children’s,” said Emily Thomas Kendrick, president and CEO. “We are so thankful for the opportunity to be affiliated with such a worthwhile event that not only provides the community with a memorable holiday experience but also raises funds to support the healthcare needs of children in our community.”
