The Atlanta Wings Festival benefits the Feed The Hungry Foundation*
 Feed The Hungry Foundation, Inc. began as a project of the Atlanta Chapter of the Full Gospel Businessman's Fellowship, International. Until 1985, the Foundation was a seasonal ministry helping families only at Christmas. In that year, the trustees sought funding for its operations on a year round basis. Today, major distribution still takes place at Christmas, but an ongoing program reaches out to over one hundred different families each week. Every week volunteers from local churches deliver boxes of food from Feed the Hungry, making our collective mission twofold: helping people in a time of need and spreading the word of God at the same time!
