Donate Food and Supplies
Our community has a tremendous network of cooperative ministries and other non-profit organizations that distribute food, clothing, and critical resources to people in immediate need. We are relying heavily on their existing infrastructure and support networks to provide basic needs to families in crisis. The demand for their services is growing exponentially as the pandemic lingers. We need everyone’s help to keep their shelves full of the key resources they need to care for our community through COVID-19.
Items can be dropped off at a local food pantry nearest you where food donations will be received, logged, sorted, boxed and then delivered to our partnering non-profit organizations. Other drop off locations include:
First United Methodist Church of Lawrenceville – Tues 10-2 pm – 395 W Crogan St, Lawrenceville 30046
Hebron Baptist Church – 24/7 – Outside Building C – 202 Hebron Church Rd, Dacula, GA 30019

Gwinnett Cares Relief & Recovery Fund

Support Our Students by Recycling Your Technology
More than 10,000 students in our community don’t have the technology they need at home to succeed in a digital learning environment. Gwinnett Cares is partnering with New Life Technologies lead technology drives across Gwinnett so we can collect and refurbish old equipment and gift it forward to students in need. Accepted items include laptops, laptop chargers, tablets, and cellphones. Data destruction guaranteed. Donations are tax deductible. To find the donation location nearest you, contact New Life Technology Group.
A donation of $50 covers the cost to refurbish an old laptop for a student. If you wish to make a tax-deductible donation to cover refurbishment costs, click here.
Provide Snacks and Meals For Our Healthcare Workers
