Peach State Partners: Volunteer with Georgia’s Food Banks

Georgia is known for its Southern hospitality, vibrant culture, and, of course, its sweet peaches. But beyond the charm and tradition, many families across the state are quietly struggling to put food on the table. That is where volunteers step in, playing a vital role in the fight against hunger.

At the forefront of this mission is the Atlanta Community Food Bank, a hub of compassion and action that distributes more than 100 million pounds of food every year across Georgia. None of this is possible without the support of volunteers.

Why Volunteers Are Essential

Every meal that reaches a Georgia family begins with people who care enough to give their time. From sorting fresh produce to assembling food boxes, volunteers are the backbone of hunger relief across the state. Whether working in the warehouse or out in the community, every effort helps ensure that nutritious food reaches seniors, children, and families who need it most.

How You Can Help

The Atlanta Community Food Bank offers a variety of opportunities to get involved:

Sort and Pack Food Donations
Inspect, sort, and pack nonperishable items and fresh produce for distribution to more than 700 partner agencies.

Support Mobile Pantries and Community Events
Assist with pop-up food distributions that bring meals directly to neighborhoods in need.

Administrative Support
Use your office skills to help behind the scenes with scheduling, data entry, and logistics.

Group and Family Volunteering
Come together with your school, workplace, or family to make a meaningful impact as a team.

Impact Across the State

The need is urgent. One in nine Georgians, including one in seven children, faces food insecurity. By giving your time, you can help provide stability and dignity to thousands of households across the state.
