There is a heavy weight families carry when a child’s stomach is growling during the school day.

This week, we're proud to officially open the Ray of Hope on-campus food pantry at Crawford W. Long Middle School. This initiative provides over 800 families in Southwest Atlanta with direct access to food and essentials right where they are. Caring For Others is honored to lead this effort alongside Kroger and its vendor partners, Heinz and Kellanova. A special thank you to the Long Middle School leadership, teachers and students who made this special event a success.
