| Atlanta Food Bank The Service and Outreach Committee for the Chamblee High School PTSA is partnering with the Atlanta Community Food Bank (ACFB) to hold our 2nd Annual School-wide Food Drive, requesting both food and monetary donations. The ACFB helps to distribute over 65 million meals across metro Atlanta and North Georgia. Let’s join together again as a community to help end hunger and fight food scarcity in Georgia! Last year we donated 1,026 lbs of food and $250 to the ACFB. With your help, we know we can top that this year! The food drive will be held April 11-21. Please bring in food items during these dates and place in the Food Bank bins provided at the entrances to school. Don't forget to ask how you can earn Service Hours with your Club!
