Athens Eats Together, An Exciting New Initiative!

ACCA friends,

We have an exciting new initiative happening at ACCA and we can’t wait to share it with you! Introducing Athens Eats Together!

You may be wondering, what is Athens Eats Together?

Athens Eats Together is a county-wide initiative created to provide emergency food relief to any Clarke-County resident facing food insecurities due to COVID-19. We at ACCA are so proud of the opportunity to further expand our reach into the community to not only serve our existing seniors in need but all residents of Clarke County.

That’s incredible! It’s going to help so many people! Now, how did this come about?

Athens-Clarke County, GA Unified Government has funded this collaborative effort bringing together expertise and resources from ACCA, the Food Bank of Northeast GeorgiaEpting Events, the Athens Farmers Market, and Family Connection-Communities in Schools of Athens.

Wow! Those are some fantastic partners! Is there anything else I should know?

ACCA staff are leading the charge and with our amazing partners and volunteers, we estimate that the Athens Eats Together program will provide over 690,000 meals to 10,000 Athenians over the next several months!

This is AWESOME! How do I get involved?!
