If you have been driving around Buckhead lately you have surely noticed all of the Bucks up and down Peachtree and tucked into spots not far off Peachtree.  This is the work of the newly formed Buckhead Business Foundation which is part of the Buckhead Business Association.  Here is a tidbit from their website explaining the foundation and the Bucks: 


"The Buckhead Business Association is pleased to announce the launch of the Buckhead Business Foundation (BBF), a nonprofit charitable and educational organization. The Foundation was created to facilitate the charitable activities of the BBA through community outreach in the areas of Education, Greenspace, Leadership, and Community Activities in support of the Buckhead community.

“The Buckhead Business Foundation will allow BBA members to work directly in support of our community,” notes Heather Wright, president of the BBA and president-elect of the BBF. “We are excited about the various charitable projects in which we will be able to participate through the Foundation.”

 The first community project that the Buckhead Business Foundation will undertake is Bucks on the Street. In cooperation with business leaders, artists, and sponsors from the Buckhead area, Bucks on the Street was created to bring awareness and a sense of pride to the community by developing and producing Buck characters, which will be placed strategically throughout Buckhead. Bucks are enhanced by hand-painting, created by local artists, and sold or auctioned for placement around Buckhead. Sponsorship opportunities are available, and all proceeds from Bucks on the Street will benefit the Buckhead Business Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization."I have been trying to figure out how I am going to photograph all of the Bucks and have decided that it will be a weekend morning bike ride, or several with my camera.  I love both of those things so it should be a fun task and a cool project.  Here is the first picture I got while picking up a summer reading book for Henry at the Barnes and Noble in Buckhead.
