Atlanta Community Food Bank

As we enter the holiday season, consider starting a Virtual Food & Fund Drive to help your neighbors in need. No cans, no barrels, no hassle!

We are excited to announce that because of the amazing partnership with Wells Fargo in September and October, the Atlanta Community Food Bank was able to serve an additional 1,247 families with over 40,000 meals! #wellsfargo #partnership

Vic Parker, Pete Bok, The Marist School and all of their friends & families have spent the last 11 years supporting the Food Bank. Instead of passing out candy, they Trick or Treat Hunger, asking everyone on Halloween Night and this week to donate food. This year they were able to donate 95 barrels of food and collected over $3,500!

Find the recipes and resources discussed in this episode at bit.ly/ACFBNutritionResources in the Cooking Videos folder, Episode 11.

In anticipation of inclement weather, the Food Bank will delay opening tomorrow, Thursday, October 29 to 9:00 a.m.

Maci, an 8th Grade student at Smokey Road Middle in Coweta County, decided to start a cupcake business with proceeds going to the Food Bank. After compiling her business plan, securing "parental" investors, and forming a non-profit with her father, Maci wasted no time getting to work. She baked endlessly while perfecting her various cupcake flavors with accompanying icings. The results were sweet culinary perfection and resulted in a $750 donation! Thank you so much to Maci for her sweet ingenuity!
