Community Assistance Center is holding their Food & Fun Festival today.


Did you know that the Community Assistance Center provides short-term, emergency assistance to residents of Sandy Springs and Dunwoody, Georgia? They assist individuals and families experiencing unexpected financial crisis from situations such as a job loss or other reduction of income, illness, medical emergency, divorce or fire.

The CAC can provide emergency financial assistance for a portion of rent, mortgage or utility bills to help prevent eviction or loss of utility services. They also provide food and clothing. The center offers adult education to improve job and life skills as well as youth programs for summer, return of school and holiday seasons.

Today the CAC is holding their Give Food and Have Fun at CAC’s 4th Annual Food 'n Fun Festival; a fun-filled, outdoor, family event with activities and games for all ages! Join us as neighbors from all walks of life gather together to raise awareness, funds and food to combat hunger and homelessness in our community while enjoying a fun day together!  Bring your family and friends to the free festival or gather a group and participate in the team events! Team events include the Food Challenge, a community-wide food drive contest; the popular Shopping Cart Decorating Contest and the 1/4 mile Hunger Awareness Walk!  - View the 2015 Food 'n Fun photo gallery! -
