   You Care and Share!
The local chapter of the National Charity League gave CAC a grant for food! CAC uses such funds to purchase food in  bulk at lower cost.
The Sandy Springs and Dunwoody communities support CAC in so many ways! Individuals give volunteer time to work in the center,  pick  up food, teach adult education classes and more. Businesses, groups and organizations donate money and hold food and clothing drives and other activities to support CAC. The ultimate goal of everyone is to help their neighbors in need stay in their homes, have the basic necessities of food and clothes and improve their situations. It's a community-wide effort on an ongoing basis to help local individuals and families facing difficult times in their lives.
