Atlanta Community Food Bank

We distribute 113 million meals a year to 700 nonprofit partner feeding programs in metro Atlanta and north Georgia.

The reality is 1 in 9 neighbors in our service area are experiencing food insecurity. With rising costs and expiring federal aids, our community's needs are increasing. Those who are facing hunger are at risk of developing chronic health issues and other complications. In the last year, the Food Bank distributed an unprecedented 10.6 million pounds of the food each month. “For us it feels like an emergency, but I don’t hear the fire sirens wailing,” says Kyle Waide, President and CEO. Understanding this helps us emphasize the importance of recognizing and addressing food insecurity in our communities.

Each month, Magnolia and Von visit our Community Food Center - Stone Mountain, to receive food assistance that helps maintain their budget. "Social security is our only income, and inflation has impacted us horribly. We rely heavily on this pantry," Magnolia shares.

Von adds, "This pantry helps us not worry about where our next meal is coming from. We get decent food, so this pantry helps us tremendously. We're grateful we have a place like this to help us make ends meet." They plan to volunteer at the pantry to give back and encourage others facing hunger to seek assistance.

Your support helps us increase our reach to families in our community and provide stability to seniors like Magnolia and Von. Donate today to make a difference!

Linda visits the Community Food Center - Marietta twice monthly to make ends meet. Despite having a job and receiving social security, Linda is still affected by the increasing cost of goods.

"There are still elderly people who have to work to make ends meet, and my rent keeps increasing. Every time I go to the grocery store, the things I get are more expensive. Times have changed so much," said Linda.

She appreciates the fresh produce that's available and always looks forward to creating meals that will last.

"I feel blessed. You can make a meal out of everything you get," she says.

The assistance she receives with groceries allows Linda to save some money, which she then uses to pay her monthly bills, including rent.

Help Linda and many others like her who are struggling with rising costs. For every dollar you donate today is TRIPLED. Your support helps us provide essential meals to families across Atlanta. Give today!
