Products

In addition to our core business of food distribution, the Food Bank has a number of projects that advance our mission.

The Atlanta Prosperity Campaign connects working families and individuals to money-saving programs and existing benefits which will help them build and save for a brighter financial future.

Atlanta's Table has been collecting prepared perishable food from our local hospitality industry and delivering this food to more than 40 Metro Atlanta nonprofit partner agencies daily. This groundbreaking program was one of the first projects of its kind, and its success has promoted similar development in cities nationwide through Feeding America.

Community Gardens brings neighbors together and empowers people to supplement their food supply by growing it themselves.

Hunger 101 is an intro to hunger and poverty issues in the United States and Georgia. The Hunger 101 project includes online curricula materials that you can download for free and use within your very own community to facilitate hunger education. It also includes workshops that we can lead for you, either here at the Food Bank, or at your school, or organization.

Hunger Walk/Run began in 1984 as a grassroots movement in response to the issue of hunger locally and globally. You can help the Atlanta Community Food Bank today! All proceeds collected through Hunger Walk remain in our community.

Kids In Need is a year-round free store for educators. Their mission is to provide learning supplies for students whose academic success is threatened by poverty.

Product Rescue Center is the area of the Food Bank where all food drive and salvaged food items are brought to be inspected and packaged by volunteers for distribution to more than 600 nonprofit partner agencies.
