North Fulton Community Charities Is On Board

This year the North Fulton Community Charities (NFCC) is celebrating 25 years of service. NFCC has come a long way from a small group of concerned citizens convened by Mary Drake to discuss forming a non-profit in 1982 to a full service Outreach Center on Elkins Road in 2008. The organization has expanded to over 60 faith partners from the original eight and has engaged scores of civic groups and friends from the business community. Through the years, NFCC has welcomed hundreds and hundreds of volunteers, donors and families in need.

With the support of local religious, business, civic groups and individuals, NFCC assists local families with rent, utilities, clothing, food, transportation, and other basic needs. Today, as families struggle with the downturn of the drought, escalating gas and food prices and the slowdown in the housing industry, demand for services is at an all time high.

Fruitful Alpharetta is proud to have them on board and looks forward to working together.
