              <text>Sarah Fitten's family lived in the Old Fourth Ward neighborhood on the edge of Buttermilk Bottoms. In Fitten's close-knit neighborhood, she developed a sense of community responsibility and a strong work ethic that led her to spend 41 years as Assistant Director for Services of the Fulton Atlanta Community Action Authority. She helped identify rent assistance and housing for those facing homelessness, food pantries for those needing provisions, clothing banks for the indigent and employment assistance for families needing self-sufficiency. As an advocate for parents for school reform and as a nurturing guardian in the lives of many children, Fitten became affectionately known as Mama Sarah. Her volunteer efforts have included involvement in the construction of a Grady satellite clinic in the Kirkwood area of DeKalb County, MARTA expansion, the Atlanta Project, Habitat for Humanity and Boys and Girls Club. She attended David T. Howard High School and is a lifelong member of Butler Street Baptist Church.</text>
