The creation of Food Well Alliance was made possible through funding from the founding benefactor, the James M. Cox Foundation, and through the vision of Jim Kennedy, Chairman Emeritus of Cox Enterprises and Chairman of the James M. Cox Foundation, and Bill Bolling, founder of the Atlanta Community Food Bank. Together, they saw an opportunity to build healthier communities across metro Atlanta by supporting and connecting members of our local food movement. Since 2015, we’ve supported more than 500 community gardens, urban farms, and orchards in the Atlanta region.

Food Well Alliance is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Tax ID: 47-4363668
