The Office of the Attorney General, the Young Lawyers Division of the State Bar of Georgia and the Georgia Food Bank Association have joined forces to create a friendly competition among Georgia law firms, law schools and legal organizations to support the eight regional food banks in Georgia. Miller & Martin is competing with other law firms in the state to reach a goal of raising the equivalent of 1,200,000 pounds of food.

The face of hunger is changing in Georgia – 18.9% of Georgians don’t always know where they will find their next meal, 28.1% of the children in Georgia have been hungry and without access to food in one of the wealthiest nations in the world, 60% of Georgia’s children are eligible for free/reduced rate lunches – 15% of those children don’t have access to a lunch program when school is out. Food Banks experienced an increased demand for food over the summer months. The Legal Food Frenzy will provide much needed food items & funds as they prepare for the increased demand for food over the summer months.
