Open Hand Atlanta

We're all packed up on the administrative side over at 181 Armour Drive! There are a lot of memories in these walls: we've been in our 176 Ottley Building for nearly 20 years, and in our 181 Armour building for 10 years. It's been surreal packing our things and watching the building slowly empty after so much impact was made here, but we're thrilled to begin our next chapter in our new home ❤️ Image 1: Our movers hard at work loading up the truck with everything our administrative staff will need at 1380 West Marietta. Image 2: Our COO Susan Anderson, before we began packing, standing behind a tall stack of packing bins. Images 3-4: Our Nutrition Services and Resource Development staff packing their spaces!

The first ingredient in every meal that comes out of our kitchen is love thanks to the care and expertise of our incredible chefs, staff, and volunteers ❤️ However, some of the items in our kitchen that put love into our nourishing meals have extra wear and tear. Our new space is an opportunity for a fresh start, and more impact than ever before. Everything from our wagons, industrial-sized kitchen appliances, to the tiniest scoops will kick us off to a strong start in our new home, which we can't wait to share with you soon.

Our brand colors have made their way onto the wall, so you know what that means... we're down to the finishing touches! Until we can all gather together at our new home, enjoy the sneak peak at an upstairs hallway, one of our conference rooms, and... (drumroll please)... part of our huge state-of-the art kitchen, where we'll be cooking our medically tailored meals with love every day ❤️

We’re sending a huge thank you to Bank of America for recognizing our work to serve clients with love, dignity and nutrition. We are honored to be named a #BofAGrants recipient, and to continue our longstanding partnership with BoA. Support like this is critical to helping us continue delivering delicious, nourishing meals and nutrition education to our neighbors in need.

Today's Prime Day, and we hope you take advantage of some of the amazing deals and savings to drop an item or two from our Amazon Wish List into your cart.

Together, we'll be ready to deliver love, dignity, and nutrition to even more of our neighbors in need. Today's featured item: dock plates!
