Meals By Grace Advocacy
Join the MBG Family
Hungry families don’t just need a hand-out, they need a hand-up. Volunteer with us and help us move these families toward self-sufficiency.
Nearly 10,000 children regularly go hungry in North Georgia. Your gift helps meet their most basic need and gives them stability.
One of the biggest obstacles to solving hunger is lack of awareness. Spread the word to others who want to help.

About Us
Meals by Grace is a community-driven ministry that works to help families move from “in need” to “self-sufficient.”
We use our community of volunteers, donors, and advocates to provide food and life-skills to those who need a loving embrace and a hand-up in life.
We are dedicated to empowering families to overcome challenges such as hunger, lack of financial education, and career insecurity. If you or someone you know needs support, please call us at 404-426-4055 or email us at info@mealsbygrace.org.
Our ability to provide assistance depends on available resources. We rely on donations to fulfill these services and may not be able to help everyone who inquires, but we will do our best to connect you with the appropriate support. By working together, we strive to bring hope and lasting change to our community.
