PeetiePie continues to support the Atlanta Community Food Bank

We are happy to once again be able to provide The Atlanta Community Food Bank with a monetary donation from PeetiePie.  Be sure to visit ACFB to find out how you can assist this great charity with your time or a tax deductible donation. Remember, there is always a way to help your community.

The ACFB supports a wide range of people in need, from children to the working poor. Food pantries, community kitchens, childcare centers, night shelters and senior centers are among the agencies that receive product from the Food Bank and provide food and other critical resources for low-income Georgians who suffer from hunger and food insecurity. The Food Bank also operates several community projects to aid our agencies in community building, technical assistance and advocacy efforts.

Nicholas House – PeetiePie Feeds Homeless Families

On Tuesday, February 21st, PeetiePie donated meals to feed 50+ homeless family members at the Nicholas House in Atlanta, GA. The menu included BBQ chicken sandwiches (from Williamson Bro’s BBQ), mac-n-cheese, green beans, baked beans, slaw, mashed taters, tea, pink lemondade, cookies, brownies and cupcakes – YUMMY!

This was an excellent way for PeetiePie to give back to local community with money made from the purchase of our items.

The Nicholas House helps homeless families achieve self-sufficiency by providing a temporary place to live while identifying and addressing the root causes of their homelessness so they never become homeless again. To see how you can help this charity please visit http://nicholashouse.org/ for more information on volunteering or to make a donation.

PeetiePie Makes Donation to Nicholas House

We were happy to be able to help out one of our favorite charities again, the Nicholas House in Atlanta, GA with a monetary donation.  The Nicholas House is a nonprofit agency that operates a transitional housing shelter as well as scattered apartment sites for homeless families.

Their Mission – Assisting homeless families in making the transition from homelessness to self-sufficiency in a structured but home-like environment.  Nicholas House is committed to assisting its families attain three goals that form the basis of self-sufficiency.

  1. Earning a Living Wage
  2. Maintaining the Physical, Mental and Social Health of Parents and Children
  3. Maintaining Safe and Stable Housing

Nicholas House understands that providing basic subsistence – food and shelter – is necessary but not sufficient to prevent most homeless families from becoming homeless again.

Nicholas House accepts homeless families no matter what their size and makeup: expectant mothers, single mothers and fathers, couples and their children, including teenage male children-and large families with as many as 10 members.

Because most shelters are gender-specific, serving only men or women and their children, homelessness often separates family members from each other, often times with devastating consequences. By accepting the entire family, Nicholas House helps keep families together.

Please visit Nicholas House to learn more about what they do and how you can volunteer your time or make a donation to assist those in need.
