Our Community Partners
solidarity sandy springs
We started our little pantry with the idea that we would help food-insecure school families during the COVID shutdowns. That small act grew into a community movement to help families that were being overlooked and in need. It is our great honor to help the families feel uplifted, supported, and food secure.
