Support Intown Cares at Godleskifest!

Intown Cares is the nonprofit that goes the extra mile to help Intown Atlantans meet their most essential human needs – food and housing. They specialize in serving neighbors who have the hardest time getting housing transition to their own homes. And they provide easy access to food for any who need it.

1. Housing First is their model for helping people transition from a long period of living outdoors to moving into their own homes. This model places permanent shelter at the start of the journey to a new life – not a culmination of meeting other criteria.
2. Similarly, they provide food for the next several meals to those who need it, without conditions or requirements – because hunger should not be an obstacle to other steps that lead to better days.

Persistence drives them. The people they employ, the process they follow, and the perspective they share are all guided by a single, unifying idea: solving hunger and homelessness requires imagination, flexibility, and a willingness to take the extra step.

As the affordable housing crisis worsens in our area, more and more neighbors are vulnerable. Homelessness continues to increase. Sadly, Atlanta 2025 numbers show a 17% increase in the proportion of adults experiencing homelessness who are domestic violence survivors. And increasing numbers of Atlantans are experiencing food insecurity. In Georgia, 1 in 7 people are food insecure, relying on food assistance services to supplement their food supply.
