Driving Out Hunger with Second Helpings Atlanta

As a nonprofit food rescue organization Second Helpings Atlanta's mission is to reduce hunger and food waste in the Metro Atlanta area. We address  food insecurity and waste at once by rescuing healthy, surplus food from our food donors and delivering it to feeding programs across Atlanta through our Food Rescue Network. 

We are currently distributing over one million pounds of surplus food (approximately 830,000 meals) to our partner agencies every 7 months.  

Before COVID-19, 1 in 9 people in Atlanta were food insecure, now Feeding America estimates that 1 in 6 people in Atlanta experience food insecurity. The pandemic has caused an enormous rise in food insecurity and SHA's services are needed now more than ever — SHA partner agencies have seen as much as a 123% increase in requests for services since March.

SHA is actively answering the call of the escalating need! Our devoted community is rescuing on average 100,000 pounds of surplus food ever 22 days as well as delivering thousands of prepared meals weekly.

As a Board Member and volunteer for the past 3 years, Second Helpings Atlanta helps us give back to our community and drive out hunger one mile at a time!
