MJ Volunteer Day At The Atlanta Community Food Bank

Updated: May 14, 2019


On May 2nd MJ teammates volunteered to help pack food boxes at the Atlanta Community Food Bank. In approximately 4 hours our team packed 600 boxes, totaling 18,600 lbs which will provide 15,500 meals! Fox 5 News in Atlanta was onsite and provided news coverage here: http://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/bank-of-america-day-of-service#/


They could use your help too! You can obtain additional information as well as sign-up to volunteer here.


Below are a few facts taken from their website:



More than 1 in every 5 Georgia kids live in food insecure household. Feeding America, Map the Meal Gap Study April, 2018 - Data collected in 2016.




Each year, an estimated 755,400 (or 1 in 7) people in metro Atlanta and north Georgia turn to Food Bank partner agencies for food. Clients visit agencies an average of 8 times a year. Feeding America, Hunger in America 2014 — data collected in 2013





95 cents of every dollar donated to ACFB (including the value of all donated food) goes directly to services in the community to help fight hunger.
