FCCDC Food Ministry
The percent of families in Georgia living in “food insecure” households is higher than the national average. Many families are forced to choose between buying groceries to feed their families or buying medication to help an elderly or disabled family member.
Since 2010, the First Church Community Development Corporation (FCCDC) has been providing boxes and assisting families to meet their monthly nutritional needs through our partnerships with Angel Food Ministries and One Harvest Food Ministry.
During 2013, the FCCDC through donations from members of the congregation, as client purchases provided families with enough nutritional food to prepare almost 20,000 nourishing meals. The stories behind the families that receive the assistance can be heartbreaking, but please know they are very appreciative of the help. It does make a difference in their lives.
