COMMUNITY FOOD DISTRIBUTION
A Mobile Food Pantry Program
LOP has created the Community Food Distribution Program, which operates as a mobile food pantry. This initiative aims to reduce food insecurity by enhancing access to fresh and staple foods for families in need within their local communities. LOP mobile food pantry adopts a client choice model, allowing program participants to select their own food items instead of receiving pre-packed bags.
TOO GOOD TO TOSS
A Food Rescue Program
Too Good to Toss is LOP’s food rescue program designed to reduce food waste by redirecting nutritious surplus food to those in need. LOP strives to connect individuals experiencing food insecurity with healthy and nutritious meals, all while reducing food waste. We accomplish this by collaborating with homeless shelters that can effectively store and distribute these meals to those who need them most.
NOURISH THE NEED
A Food Backpack Program
In 2014, “Nourish the Need”, a food backpack program, was introduced to the Cliftondale community. The program brought awareness to the community and offered a viable solution to alleviate food insecurity in the community. The children selected for the Nourish the Need program are on a free or low-cost meal program; they attend a Fulton County school; and have been identified by school educators/employees.
