Vulnerable communities and those who live within them often lack access to healthy food or the resources to acquire it with. These same communities are also disproportionately affected by diet-related chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer and obesity. All of these issues impact an individuals mental health and overall well-being. By providing the healthiest food possible to our neighbors in need, we can help in the fight against two battles that are intrinsically linked: hunger and chronic disease in our community. As a part of our dedication to giving back to our city of Atlanta we are starting a can food drive this November. We will have a donation box set up in our lobby starting November 1st through 19th. The Atlanta Community Food Bank focuses on highly nutritious foods, they aim to distribute food that will enable people suffering the ill-effects of hunger and poverty to feel stronger and healthier. Our team will be going out to ACFB in November to drop of collected donations and to volunteer! You can donate by bringing cans (no glass packaging, please!) to drop off in our lobby starting or you can donate online by visiting acfb.org > click Donate > select Food & Fund Drives > click Find a Drive > [type in] Heal ATL Gives Back > click DONATE NOW! The link to our drive to donate will be posted on Instagram and our website on November 1st! #LetsHealATL
