Sprayberry High School has shared information about food assistance resources for individuals facing financial hardship. The school’s social worker compiled a list of options for those experiencing either short-term or long-term difficulties. Those who need additional help after using these resources are encouraged to contact Maggy Hoskins by email at margaret.hoskins@cobbk12.org or by phone at 770-656-5048.
To locate nearby food pantries, individuals can text “FINDFOOD” or “COMIDA” to 888.976.2322 and receive a list based on their zip code. Additionally, the Atlanta Community Food Bank provides an online map to search for food banks across Georgia at https://www.acfb.org/get-help/food-map/.
One of the local support networks mentioned is Cobb Moms Helping Cobb, which connects families and non-profit agencies with those in need within Cobb County. More information about requesting assistance from this group is available at www.cobbmomshelpingcobb.org/need-assistance.
