This past week, we hosted our first Youth Leadership and Service Summit of the summer! Our students engaged in various leadership and service activities throughout the week, including hearing insights about food insecurity from Food Bank staff and visiting the Capitol to meet with Representative Mandisha Thomas. In addition, they demonstrated their commitment by participating in volunteer shifts at Urban Recipe and Food Well Alliance, our Community Food Centers, and our Hunger Action Center. We're so proud of our students' dedication to impacting our community!

The HDR Atlanta office won! The Atlanta Community Food Bank was credited with the cash equivalent of providing 15,000 meals to Georgians in need. What's the competition? The HDR Foundation donates to a local bank when offices reach 50% employee participation in the foundation's annual day of giving. The generosity of our employee-owners is palpable. Thank you to Sehar Juddha for our detailed tour of the magnificent 345,000 SF facility and to Maria Yesenia T. for coming out of maternity leave to make our presentation. #CommunityGiving #EmployeeOwnership #HDRCares #Atlanta #FoodBank #HDRAtlanta
