The Center for Family Resources, in partnership with Cobb County Department of Family and Children Services, has been providing Thanksgiving boxes to families in need in Cobb County for 26 years. As families prepare for a holiday with loved ones surrounding a Thanksgiving feast, many of our Cobb neighbors find it difficult to afford a Thanksgiving meal for their families. CFR is working to preserve family traditions and treasured time together by providing each family with everything needed to enjoy a meal at home together.
