Other local figures attended Latto’s Christmas event, including Clayton County Commissioner Alieka Anderson and Chair of the Clayton County Board of Education Jessie Goree.

“Latto is the epitome of greatness here in Clayton County,” Commissioner Anderson said at the event, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

“Our kids love her, the commissioners love her, and this is a collaboration that has been great for the community and for the children in Clayton County Public Schools. I want them to see the spirit of giving. When you give, it reciprocates back to you. What we tell our kids in Clayton County is that you can go and be anything you want to be, and Latto is a great example of that.”
