Atlanta Restaurants Prepare to Trade in Their Cooking Utensils for Power Tools.

May 28, 2015

Atlanta Habitat for Humanity will host its third Home Cooking & Southern Hospitality Build beginning on May 30, 2015. The house will be completed on July 16, 2015 thanks to the sponsorship of thirteen local businesses.

Sponsors of the build feature companies and individuals in the restaurant, food service, and hospitality industries. This year’s sponsors include: Arby’s Foundation, Concentrics Restaurants, Middleton Family Wines, Church’s Chicken, Cinnabon, Gate Gourmet, Hyatt Regency Atlanta, PepsiCo, Portman Companies, The Ritz-Carlton Atlanta, Sheraton Atlanta Hotel, Sodexo, and the Westin Peachtree Plaza.

Together the companies are committing $84,000 in financial support; many companies found creative ways to fundraise for this event such as dine-ins and change jars on counters.

Employees from these businesses will also donate over 2,000 volunteer hours in order to complete this project.
