WHO WE ARE

Graceful Hearts Inc.
Our Founder

Graceful Hearts, Inc is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization devoted to ending hunger. It is outrageous that millions of people are starving in United States- we are supposed to be the richest country. How do they let tons of food to be thrown away daily with so many people going hungry? Somewhere between 30 to 40 percent of the United States food supply is wasted!! accounting for roughly 1.3 billion tons and nearly $990 billion dollars. In the United States alone, Americans waste $160 billion of that total.
From volunteering for several different food banks for years and helping the homeless in their time of need through food, clothes, blankets, etc. God has blessed me on this path of making a difference in people’s lives that need help through food pantry and hygiene products in West Georgia.
West Georgia is in the growing stages right now people are having challenging decisions between buying medicines, paying a utility bill, and buying food- it’s a struggle to make a decision because all these options are necessary in their lives for everyday living.
Graceful Hearts, Inc will improve family stability for low-income families, seniors, and homeless through providing heathy nutritional foods so they won’t have stress to where their next meal is coming from, and hygiene products for everyday living.
We provide the bridge between the farmers market and stores who supply the food and those who need it.
OUR VISION

Also give them the tools necessary to not just survive but thrive.
