About the Hunger Action Center:
The Hunger Action Center provides a great hands-on experience in a diverse and social
atmosphere. Groups and individual volunteers come together to inspect, sort, and pack quality
grocery donations to prepare for distribution to nearly 700 partner agencies across Georgia.
Food Donations: With 1 in every 9 Georgians at risk of hunger, the number of people
requesting emergency food assistance continues to grow. If every volunteer visiting our Hunger
Action Center brings just two cans of food, we would be able to provide approximately 2,750
additional meals each month!
*Please consider bringing as many nonperishable items as you can! You're already
making a tremendous difference by volunteering. Think how much that can be magnified by
grabbing a couple of food items to bring with you when you come! We're always in need of
natural peanut butter, canned chicken, and canned fruits and vegetables. Click here for our full list
of most needed food items.
