Helping in Emergency Situations
 A recent apartment fire in Sandy Springs left families with no housing and no belongings. Victims were referred to CAC by local emergency workers for help. Through donations, CAC helps families and individuals who are facing crisis situations and have nowhere else to turn. We can help with temporary housing, referrals, food and clothes. CAC also provides furniture and home goods to those suffering from an emergency situation. The next time you have furniture or home goods to donate, please think of CAC and help your neighbors in need.
