The North Gwinnett Co-Op plays a vital role in our community, having distributed over 70,000 pounds of food in July alone to support 3,946 people across 944 families, including adults, children, and senior citizens. This impressive effort highlights the ongoing need in our community and the impact that our collective donations can have.

Residents are encouraged to donate essential items such as hygiene products, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, cereal, and canned beans. The North Gwinnett Co-Op will also be accepting monetary donations on their website starting September 21st, with each dollar counting as a pound toward the total. Be sure to select "City of Suwanee" when making your donation to ensure it counts towards our total!

Join us in this friendly competition, and let's make a difference together. After all, in this Food Fight, everyone wins!
