EIC, The Bold Opinion
Feeding Atlanta’s undeserved communities one vegetable at a time.
The Grocery Spot is a non profit organization that feeds its Atlanta community for free of charge three days out of the week.
Founded in 2021, The Grocery Spot initially opened its doors as a for-profit grocery store with the goal of providing high-quality, affordable food to the Grove Park and Center Hill community. Through connection with residents, the organization gained a deeper understanding of the challenges faced, it became evident that the issue of food insecurity was a far more pervasive and urgent matter.
Driven by The Grocery Spot’s dedication to addressing needs of the neighborhood, they made the bold decision to transform The Grocery Spot into a nonprofit, free grocery store. This transition was rooted in the desire to create a sustainable solution to the systemic issue of food insecurity and food justice in the community.
By shifting focus from profit to people, The Grocery Spot cultivates a space where everyone is welcome, and where access to fresh, nutritious food is not a luxury, but a fundamental right. For more information on The Grocery Spot, visit them online and on social media.
