Too many people are struggling to put food on the table or gifts under the tree. The good news? You can do something about it. Today is Giving Tuesday, when we’re called on to help people in need. You can do that by supporting local initiatives like the Jay Weaver Food Pantry, which distributes tens of thousands of pounds of food year-round to people in Cherokee and Cobb counties, and/or Santa’s Caravan, which provides presents to children who might otherwise have no gifts to open on Christmas morning.
Contributions enable the food pantry to buy canned goods, milk, eggs, produce and milk at low prices from the Atlanta Community Food Bank. Your support helps Santa’s Caravan provide toys and gifts including books, dolls and outfits to children referred by local schools. Each child receives a warm coat, hat and gloves as well as underwear and socks. Their parents receive 120-180 pounds of food and kitchen items.
The Jay Weaver Food Pantry and Santa’s Caravan have operated for years from Heritage Presbyterian Church on Bells Ferry Road. Donate today: http://bit.ly/4adr3T7
