GIVE NEIGHBORS HOUSING AND FOOD EVERY MONTH
Access to reliable housing and food is critical for physical health, safety, and mental wellness.
​
Yet in Atlanta, nearly 3,000 individuals are unhoused – living outside for extended periods of time in conditions few people will ever know. An even greater, and increasing, number of residents (1 in 7) are unsure where their next meals will come from. These individuals face some of the greatest obstacles to housing and food security.
​
Help solve homelessness and hunger for increasing
numbers of neighbors with a monthly gift.
Join the passionate community serving our neighbors every month
Our team works every day to ensure neighbors meet their most essential human needs – housing and food. Our monthly giving community, The Extra Mile, helps us do just that.
Your financial support helps us deploy one of the most effective homeless services teams in Atlanta as we work to help neighbors experiencing chronic homelessness navigate the complex journey to housing. Our team is recognized for persistence and creativity in helping unhoused neighbors make their journey home. Our case managers provide wide-ranging support to neighbors through our ongoing community partnerships and our dedicated homeless services in local neighborhoods.

Support from donors like you also allows us to operate one of the most innovative low-barrier food distribution programs in the Atlanta area with a commitment to provide consistent, equitable, and convenient access to food for all. We make groceries available at our food pantry and deliver them to now-housed clients and seniors living on fixed incomes. The number of neighbors we serve at our pantry has continued to rise, including increasing numbers of children and families.
We go the extra mile for human dignity
Living outdoors for months or years is a hardship no one should experience. So too is the fear of not knowing where the next meal will come from. Our Food and Homeless Services programs rely on the support of people like you, and the need is growing. That's the power of your generosity. Together, we empower our neighbors to transform their lives.
Meet the community making a difference
The Extra Mile includes generous, passionate, and committed people from all walks of life in our community. Our monthly donors have sustained our Food and Homeless Services programs to assist more than one thousand neighbors in moving into housing and distribute food for more than one million meals to neighbors experiencing hunger and food insecurity. Join us to create even more impact in Intown Atlanta.
"Intown Cares does such important work for the community, and I wanted to support it beyond occasionally volunteering or dropping off food. A monthly donation felt like the most convenient way to have a consistent impact and support the organization as a whole. Having worked in the nonprofit field, I understand how important a reliable stream of funding is to support the mission, especially in these times when food insecurity is on the rise. Even a small amount per month helps!."
