What started as a simple act of friendship quickly became a labor of love. Commemorate a legacy of hard work and an open heart. Help us continue to provide nutrition for all by making a donation today.

In 1988, Michael Edwards and a small group of friends reached out to neighbors dying from HIV/AIDS, disenfranchised by the community and too sick to prepare their own meals.

They offered more than a meal. They offered friendship, love and dignity.

30 years later, we continue in Michael’s footsteps. Amplifying the impact of his work by providing food as medicine in more at-risk communities than ever thanks to dedicated volunteers and donors like you who have supported Open Hand Atlanta through the years.

Help us continue to meet the ever-growing demand for our services and make a substantial impact on the lives of those we serve.
