September 2016          Helping Neighbors in Need in Sandy Springs and Dunwoody Since 1987. 
Neighbors Come Together to Help Neighbors in Times of Need
 
When Daphne lost her job this past summer she didn't know how she was going to pay her rent. She came to CAC seeking help. We pledged to pay part of her rent and two congregations also contributed toward her rent payment.  The assistance allowed Daphne to stay in her home without falling behind on rent and potentially getting evicted. She also received food and clothing from CAC and took a financial management class. She found a job to pay the bills while she looks for a better paying position and recently sent a note to CAC:  "I am abundantly grateful to CAC for the gracious assistance I received when I was in need. God bless you all in your endeavors to serve your community."
