The holiday season is a time for family and friends to gather and appreciate time shared together, often over a warm and bountiful meal.

We at the Food Bank have amazing teammates, who are Hunger Heroes in connecting neighbors with nourishing food. One colleague, Dave Williams, was honored by Mount Olive Seventh-Day Adventist Church during their annual Community Service Award, extending gratitude for his steadfast commitment and service to the Athens community. Congrats, Dave! We are proud to work alongside you everyday! #FoodBankofNEGA #FoodBankofNortheastGeorgia

Did you know that food banks need more than just canned foods? While we appreciate and are so thankful for any donations, items such as baby supplies, toiletries, pet food, and dry goods are also a necessity for our neighbors. Consider donating these items to the Food Bank this holiday season! #FoodBankofNortheastGeorgia #FoodBankNEGA #Donations

Thank you to all of our 2024 Hunger Bowl Teams! Together, we raised money and food to provide over 164,000 meals for our neighbors in Northeast Georgia. The Food Bank is proud to hunker down alongside these champions, so that together we will see EVERY NEIGHBOR. WITH ENOUGH FOOD. EVERYDAY.

We are thankful for the opportunity to help our neighbors on the Georgia-North Carolina state line through a partnership with our Clayton, GA location and the MANNA Food Bank in western North Carolina by storing food for them while they continue to receive donations and mobilize food. #FoodBankofNortheastGeorgia #FoodBankNEGA
