A new partnership is preparing to put groceries into the homes of Henry County families before Thanksgiving break.
ATL Live reports that VyStar, Goodr and the Henry County Public Schools Foundation are teaming up to serve 250 families at Eagles Landing Middle School on Friday, November 20.
Registration is being shared through school administrators. Families interested in participating should check their school communications or contact their student’s school about the registration link.
Families should confirm their registration and pickup arrangements before traveling.
There is also another route for readers who need food sooner or live outside the giveaway’s reach. Atlanta Community Food Bank maintains a pantry locator and offers help finding food through its website.
Its text service allows people to send FINDFOOD or COMIDA to 888-976-2232. The organization also lists Community Food Center appointments and assistance applying for food-benefit programs.
Those resources are separate from the Henry County event. A school-based giveaway serves a defined group on a particular date; the food bank’s search tools can help readers look for other options.
For parents managing the holiday break, the first step is practical: confirm the school registration process, then check nearby pantry resources if additional groceries are needed.
Share this information with a parent or caregiver who could use it.
