Doing Good In The Neighborhood
CAC Needs Your Help at the Food Pantry

Pictured above Bettina Cothran, RCSS Member Linda Randolph, and Steven Parker volunteer at the Community Assistance Center to help sort food and prepare CAC to open for business on Saturday.

Community Assistance Center(CAC) is a cornerstone of the human services network in the northern Perimeter area. Since 1987, CAC has played a vital role in the cities of Sandy Springs and Dunwoody by preventing hunger and homelessness, providing assistance for basic needs such as utilities, food and clothing, and actively engaging clients to work towards greater self-sufficiency.

The need for human services in the Sandy Springs and Dunwoody communities is real. In suburban neighborhoods across the Atlanta region, increasing numbers of families struggle to make ends meet. Like many communities across the country, they are experiencing new challenges related to suburban poverty.  Atlanta has experienced a dramatic demographic shift between 2000 and 2011 as the number of people living in poverty in the Atlanta suburbs grew by almost 160 percent. The need for assistance among residents of Sandy Springs and Dunwoody continues to increase as the cities grow and living expenses escalate

Please consider coming out and volunteering to this vital service in our Sandy Spring community at the Client Choice Mini-Market Food Pantry located at  8607 Roswell Road Sandy Springs, GA 30350.

If you are interested, text, call or email Linda Randolph at 404-277-4246 or linda@genealogyatlanta.com to get more information.  Thank you for your service above self!
