The Sandwich Project Reaches Monumental Milestone

The Sandwich Project hosted a milestone event on July 21 at the Big Green Egg Culinary Center as the organization celebrated the making of its one millionth sandwich for those in need.

The power of a simple sandwich to make a difference in someone’s life is undeniable. The Sandwich Project, an initiative based in metro Atlanta, has reached an extraordinary milestone by collecting and donating one million sandwiches to individuals and families living with food insecurity.

The Sandwich Project recently donated its one millionth sandwich to those who are struggling with food insecurity.

Since its inception in April 2020, The Sandwich Project has been driven by the dedication and compassion of thousands of volunteers who generously contribute their time and resources to the community. Each week, volunteers prepare thousands of homemade deli sandwiches, accompanied by protein bars and fresh fruit. The Sandwich Project then distributes the sandwiches to local nonprofits to reach those in need.
