Clyde’s Kitchen provides up to 27,000 meals on an annual basis. These meals go directly to our guests coming in to receive life essential services. These meals are also only possible due to our numerous partners such as Second Helpings Atlanta and the Atlanta Community Food Bank, who provide us with good quality food we use to prepare as well as volunteers who directly serve our guests with dignity.

Meal service is only available to those receiving service from The Renewal Project or Door-to-Door Housing.

Our MissionCrossroads Community Ministries seeks to provide access to resources that empower people experiencing homelessness to progress on the road toward economic and personal stability.
