October–December Food Assistance Drive: How You Can Help
The Holiday Season: Our Greatest Need
Every year from October through December, demand for food assistance in Gwinnett County surges. Families who were managing through the year often find themselves stretched thin by the compounding costs of heating, school supplies, holiday needs, and unpredictable income.
Positive Passtime Community Resource Center has committed to running monthly food assistance distributions throughout this three-month stretch — and we need your help to make it happen.
What We're Doing
Our Food & Clothing Assistance program provides:
- Monthly food box distributions with enough food to last a family of four for one week
- Emergency food assistance for families in acute crisis — no appointment needed
- Clothing distributions including warm coats, hats, and gloves as temperatures drop
- Hygiene and household supply bundles for families who need more than just food
How to Receive Assistance
If you or someone you know needs food assistance, please know:
- No referral is required
- No income verification is needed
- All distributions are free and confidential
- Anyone in Gwinnett County is welcome
Simply show up at our next distribution event or contact us to learn the next date and location.
How to Give
Your donation — whether food, clothing, or funds — makes a direct difference. Here's what $25 can do:
- $10 provides a full week of produce for one person
- $25 covers a complete food box for a family of four
- $50 funds emergency food assistance for two families in crisis
You can also donate non-perishable food items directly at any of our events, or organize a food drive within your church, school, or business.
Donate Now or Contact Us to volunteer at our next distribution.
No family should face the holiday season without a full table. Thank you for helping us make that possible.
