The Food-A-Thon is an annual initiative and community service project hosted by the Atlanta Apartment Association and its membership. Each year AAA's Food-A-Thon donates millions of meals to help feed Georgia's hungry.

Our GOAL for 2024:  6.2 Million Meals!  Remember, every $1 = 4 meals!
All charitable donations collected go to Atlanta Community Food Bank to help thousands of Georgians who are in need.   YOUR help is needed!
