Program to Provide 24,000 Food and Snack Packs to Students Located in Five Metro Atlanta School Systems
ATLANTA – The Hawks Foundation and State Farm, along with Hawks guard/forward Cam Reddish, have joined Goodr, an Atlanta-based social impact startup leveraging technology to reduce food waste and end hunger, to expand the Snack Pack Program. This initiative is designed to help fill the food insecurity gap by ensuring that children have access to food and snacks that are either already prepared or easy to make. Because of the ongoing pandemic, school districts are no longer able to provide snacks throughout the week as many students have continued to learn virtually, and some are at home alone while their parents are at work.
