The Georgia Mountain Food Bank’s Mission is to address hunger, health and quality of life by serving those in need throughout northeast Georgia. The Guest House, Inc. has become a part of GMFB’s initiatives as we receive commodities once a month which help with our household maintenance, laundry and pantry stocked supplies.

Our Director and Social Services Director enjoyed a visit to the Food Bank in the Fall to see the Atlanta Falcons preparing food boxes for delivery along with 30 community volunteers, Food Bank Staff and Board Members. We met with Food Bank Director Kay Blackstock and formed the beginnings of a partnership which is now in full swing here.

The Guest House is very grateful to be a Food Bank recipient, as any money saved here on supplies and pantry items helps us supplement the cost of patient care. Keeping our sliding scale rates low and affordable is possible with contributions from all over, including the household supplies we receive from The Georgia Mountain Food Bank.
