How We Help
Paving the Way to a Better Tomorrow
Providing Food Assistance
One of the main reasons SWEEAC was founded in 1988 was to compensate for the greater Atlanta area’s struggles with food insecurites. We’ve dedicated a lot of man-hours and invested countless resources to this charitable cause, and hope you’ll help us continue this work. See how you can by contacting us below.
We serve more than 50,000 families & distribute over 1,000,000 pounds of food to families in the communities of Atlanta
Community Outreach
Although we can no longer offer walk-in assistance, one of our goals is to ensure that the most vulnerable and at-risk groups in the greater Atlanta area who are facing food insecurities are getting food. In partnership with Welcoming Atlanta, a division of the City of Atlanta, we are identifying families who struggle with lack of food resources. We also work with local churches and state agency workers to reach those that are unable to get assistance. At SWEEAC we have programs that help families with other essential needs.

Feeding Children
One of our main causes here at SWEEAC is Feeding Children, an issue that touches many lives, particularly those in the greater Atlanta area. We spend a significant portion of our resources on tackling this problem. See how you can help by reading more or contacting one of our representatives.
Helping Senior Citizens
SWEEAC has made a great effort in reaching out to those over 60 that are facing food insecurities and meet eligibility reuirements. With the help of the Atlanta Community Food Bank, we are able to help this group with healthy food options boxed and delivered to their home.
