#ServiceSaturdayz with Margie's House



Our recent partnership with Margie's House, a nonprofit organization in Fulton County, highlighted the impact of community support. Their mission is to provide essential resources such as food, clothing, and basic necessities to families in need. We are eager to share our experiences with #ServiceSaturdayz and show you how you can join in this vital effort!


The Heart of Margie's House


The work at Margie's House is both inspiring and essential. They focus on reducing hunger and supplying resources to families who are struggling. This Saturday, Beta Delta Phi joined the dedicated volunteers to come together to package meals and distribute care packages that include hygiene products, clothing, and baby supplies. The atmosphere of kindness and understanding created by volunteers is welcoming for families who might feel overlooked.

Food insecurity is a pressing issue, particularly in Fulton County, where approximately 13% of families struggle to access enough nutritious food. This problem isn't only about hunger; it's about the realities of economic hardship, limited access to grocery stores, and the lack of nutritious options available. When you volunteer with Margie's House, you're helping to close this gap—one meal, one family, one Saturday at a time.
