A couple of organizations in Northeast Cobb communities are continuing efforts to help feed families in need during the summer.
The Lassiter PTSA food pantry is holding its next food distribution day next Friday, June 26, and organizers are saying you can provide a monetary donation as well as food items.
Organizers say around 60 families in the Lassiter community (including its feeder schools, Davis ES, Garrison Mill ES, Rocky Mount ES, Mabry MS, and our neighbors Tritt ES, Shallowford Falls ES and Pope HS) rely on the pantry to meet family food needs every week.
More information is available by e-mailing lassiterptsa@gmail.com. You can also use this link while out shopping if you want to contribute items.
The Sprayberry Community Group is collecting and distributing food every week to anyone who needs it, and details are at the flyer below.
If you want to drop off food, come by the Piedmont Church (570 Piedmont Road) Tuesdays between 3-7 p.m. If you need food, come to the same location Wednesdays from 4-6 p.m.
The group provides regular updates on its needs and activities on its Facebook page.
