Our Story

UGA Food2Kids raises awareness and funds to benefit the Northeast Georgia Food Bank Program Food 2 Kids. This program provides food-insecure children in Athens-Clarke Country and surrounding areas with bags of non-perishable, easily prepared, nutritious food on Friday afternoons. Many of these children are on the free or reduced lunch program and the only meals they receive are during school hours. Food2Kids helps to bridge this "weekend hunger gap" for over 1500 students. We believe that for children to be well-educated, it is essential that they are well-fed. We support the food bank in any ways they see fit and additionally hold healthy lifestyle assemblies at local elementary schools to support students and our community.
