We hope you're getting ready to stuff the turkey (and stuff yourself) with Thanksgiving just around the corner!
While it might be a little ways down the line, we need your help to bring the Christmas spirit to kids in Douglas County and beyond. Operation Christmas Coat is just around the corner, and we're looking for donations of new coats for children to keep them warm this winter season. You can find more information in our previous blog here.
But in light of an even closer holiday coming up, local food banks need your help. People are struggling to find food donations, so if you're able, we'd highly encourage you to donate to one of the local food pantries listed here:
Atlanta Community Food Bank - College Park
Never Alone Food Pantry - Woodstock
The Pantry - Douglasville
Red Door Food Pantry - Cartersville
Georgia Mountain Food Bank - Gainesville
Food Bank of Northeast Georgia - Athens
Community Food Center - Marietta
Middle Georgia Community Food Bank - Macon
StreetWise Georgia - Lawrenceville
Good Samaritan Center - Douglasville
