Homelessness.
At Goose's Open Hand and More, Inc., we focus on one of the most basic human needs: a place to call home. We believe that a lack of housing should never mean a lack of dignity. Our work is grounded in providing practical, immediate support for our neighbors experiencing homelessness, offering a meal, a conversation, and a bridge to greater stability.
A Foundation of Food & Respect
We start with the essentials: a hot, nutritious meal and a safe space to enjoy it. We believe providing for immediate needs is the first and most crucial step in helping our neighbors regain their footing. It's more than just food; it's a moment of peace and a sign that someone cares.
Building a Path Forward
Our support doesn't end with a meal. We connect our guests with local resources and, most importantly, with a community that cares. Your donation helps us provide this consistent support and builds a network of compassion that helps people move from the streets toward stable housing. Join us in being a good neighbor.
Our work is simple: we show up for people who need it. Your support allows us to provide hot meals, clean socks, and basic supplies. But more than that, it provides a moment of relief and a human connection that reminds our neighbors in Atlanta they are not forgotten. It's practical help, offered with respect.
We can't do this work alone. When you join us—by donating, volunteering, or spreading the word—you become part of a compassionate network of support. Your contribution combines with others to create a real safety net, showing our entire community that we look out for one another. Together, we can make a much larger impact.
How We Help
A Hot Meal & a Moment of Peace
A nutritious meal can be the turning point in a tough day. We provide consistent, reliable meal services so our neighbors always know where they can turn for food and a chance to rest and recharge.
Essential Supplies for Daily Life
Beyond food, basic essentials are crucial for health and dignity. We distribute hygiene kits, new socks, weather-appropriate gear, and other supplies to provide comfort and meet immediate practical needs.
Connection & Conversation
We believe no one should feel invisible. Our volunteers offer more than just supplies; they offer genuine conversation, a listening ear, and compassionate support. This human connection is at the heart of everything we do.
A Bridge to Further Support
While we focus on immediate needs, we also serve as a bridge to long-term solutions. We help connect individuals with local partners and resources that can provide assistance with shelter, healthcare, and employment.
