Let's help our fellow Georgians have a less hungry 2008!

Summer is a challenging time for those who struggle with hunger.  Families who rely heavily on free and reduced school meals have to find new resources for food during the summer months. This season will be especially tough as gas and food prices continue to rise.  Many people who have never had to ask for help are coming to food pantries for the first time in their lives.

There are many ways you can help.

• If you like to roll your sleeves up and volunteer, we have two
• great options. You can sort and pack food boxes at our Product Rescue Center or help out at one of our Community Gardens.
• If you love to cook, check out our current line up of Simple Abundance cooking classes. They are taught by the best chefs in town, and all the proceeds benefit Atlanta’s Table, a project of the Food Bank that rescues prepared foods from hotels, restaurants and caterers.
• If you enjoy dining out, why not join us for Supper Club? Twenty percent of the evening’s proceeds benefit Atlanta’s Table. Find out which restaurants are hosting future Supper Clubs!
• Want more options? Visit ACFB.org

Ask yourself!

Have you ever gone hungry because you couldn't afford to buy food?
Have your children ever gone hungry because you couldn't afford to buy food?
Have you ever pulled food from trash cans to eat?
Thousands of Georgians would answer yes!
