Financial assistance

👋 Meet the people behind our Client Programs! You've heard about the work we do. Now, let's introduce you to some of the people who make it happen! 🤗 We're opening up the NFCC photo album to share a few behind-the-scenes moments from throughout the year featuring our Client Programs team! For many neighbors seeking assistance, their journey begins at the Barbara Duffy Center, where our intake team, Diana, Jill and Karina, helps them navigate their first steps. From there, our bilingual case managers, Ruth, Myriam and Cindy, work with neighbors to understand their circumstances, explore available resources and help them move toward greater financial stability. And we can't forget our amazing volunteers! Liz, Peter, Nancie, Mikel and Eugenia are just a few of the dedicated people who give their time to help welcome and support our neighbors. Led by Wynona, VP of Client Programs, this team also includes our Education and Workforce Development programs, which we'll be highlighting in the coming weeks! As part of our 35 Days of Giving, we're going BEYOND the programs to introduce the people, relationships and everyday moments that make our mission possible. Because behind every service we provide are people who care. 💙💚 #35DaysOfGiving #NFCCHelp #MeetTheTeam #TogetherWeCan

Asking for help shouldn’t come with shame. 💙💚 An unexpected job loss, reduced hours or a family emergency can change someone’s financial situation overnight. And sometimes, a little support is all it takes to keep a family in their home. In Part 1 of Catching Up with Amy, our president, Dr. Amy Gates Stroud, takes a closer look at financial assistance and why providing support with dignity matters just as much as the assistance itself. This week, we’re continuing the conversation! We’ll introduce you to the people behind the program and share how we’re working to make asking for help a welcoming experience. 🧡 #35DaysOfGiving #NFCChelp #TogetherWeCan #northfulton

“Without NFCC, I would be homeless.” After losing her job, one of our North Fulton neighbors found herself facing eviction despite doing everything she could to make ends meet. She turned to NFCC for financial assistance and discovered additional support through our Food Pantry and clothing assistance programs. For the first time, she’s sharing her journey in her own words. As we kick off 35 Days of Giving, we’re sharing the stories behind our mission and the neighbors who remind us why this work matters. Every step forward starts somewhere. 💙💚🧡 #35daysofgiving #nfcchelp #togetherwecan #northfulton #nonprofit

The next step starts with knowing what's possible! Last week, we welcomed 14 community members to an information session with Gwinnett Technical College to explore educational opportunities, career pathways and financial aid. For our GED students and graduates, opportunities like these can help turn the question of "What's next?" into a plan for moving forward. Thank you to Alisa Miller and Gwinnett Tech for helping us connect our neighbors with new opportunities! #NFCCHelp #NorthFulton #AdultEducation #GwinnettTech

Sometimes, the impact of a community coming together is best told by the people who experience it. Recently, we received this handwritten note from a neighbor whose family received financial assistance during a difficult time. Swipe to read their message. To everyone who supports NFCC, thank you for believing in our neighbors and helping make moments like these possible. Your generosity helps families navigate difficult circumstances and take their next steps forward. #NFCCHelp #TogetherWeCan #NorthFulton #CommunitySupport

“One of my favorite local nonprofit organizations.” — Andy Stanley 💙💚 During North Point Community Church’s October 11 service, Andy Stanley shared a special moment from this year’s Be Rich campaign, highlighting NFCC and the impact of our ongoing partnership. From helping neighbors stay in their homes to keeping our Food Pantry stocked, North Point’s generosity continues to make a meaningful difference in our community. Thank you to @andy_stanley, @northpointcommunitychurch and everyone who gives through Be Rich for continuing to invest in our neighbors and their financial stability. #BeRich #NFCCHelp #NorthPointCommunityChurch

Earning a GED is a big accomplishment. But what happens next? Earlier this year, we celebrated 12 students earning their GEDs through our program. Four received scholarships to continue their education. It was an incredible moment, and one that got us thinking. What if we could invest in every graduate? What if we could help each of them take their next step? That could mean college, technical training, a skilled trade, professional certification or another path toward greater financial stability. That question inspired us to build something new. We want to help our graduates keep going. We’re building what’s next. 🗣Keep an eye out for a special announcement soon! 💙💚

What does it actually take to build a career with a company like Georgia Power? This week, our Explore Careers series gave local job seekers the opportunity to find out firsthand. Andre Person from Georgia Power joined us for a conversation about career pathways, including entry-level opportunities in skilled trades, employee benefits and ways to get started in the industry. Through NFCC’s Workforce Development program, Explore Careers connects job seekers directly with employers to ask questions, discover new possibilities and take steps toward greater financial stability. Thank you to @GA_Power and Andre for sharing your time and expertise with our community, and to Anna Whitson for making this opportunity possible!

210 households in a single day. That’s what an average day looks like at the NFCC Food Pantry. For each household, groceries and everyday essentials can mean a little more room in the budget for rent, utilities, medication or another expense. It can mean not having to choose between putting food on the table and paying a bill. And our pantry is here for anyone in our community who needs it. There is no financial eligibility requirement; just bring a photo ID and something showing your current address. Need support? Come see us. Want to support your neighbors? Help us keep the shelves stocked. Right now, we especially need toiletries and feminine products, cereal, instant coffee, meal-in-a-can items and condiments. Donate a few items or gather your people and host a drive for NFCC. Whether you need support or you’re able to give it, there’s a place for you here. 💙💚 Learn more at nfcchelp.org.

Life doesn't always go as planned. When it doesn't, you don't have to face it alone. We're here to help. For more than 40 years, we've helped neighbors across North Fulton overcome hardship and build toward lasting financial stability. Whether you need food assistance, emergency financial support, clothing and household essentials, education and workforce development, or help through one of our seasonal programs, we're here for you. If you or someone you know could use a helping hand, visit nfcchelp.org or give us a call to learn more about our programs and services. Together, we can build a stronger North Fulton community.

Recently, we continued our Workforce Development series with another Explore Careers session, this time with our friends at Right at Home North Atlanta. Explore Careers gives job seekers the chance to go beyond a job posting and have real conversations with employers. Participants learn about different career paths, what the work is really like, the skills needed to succeed, and can ask the questions that matter most. A big thank you to @rahatlanta for sharing their team, their expertise, and the meaningful work they do supporting seniors and adults with disabilities in our community. Workforce development is about creating opportunities that lead to lasting financial stability, and we're excited to keep those opportunities growing. Join us for our next Workforce Development course, Why Networking Matters (More Than You Think!), on August 20. Visit nfcchelp.org to learn more and register.

This forklift represents so much more than a piece of equipment; it represents opportunity. Thanks to a grant from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, NFCC has been able to connect community members with OSHA-aligned forklift certification training that leads to real career opportunities. So far, 11 participants have earned their certification, with more completing training this summer. Seven are already using their new credentials to pursue promotions and higher wages, while others are entering the workforce with greater confidence and the skills to launch careers in logistics. Carlos, one of our participants, shared, “I plan to use this certification to increase my employment opportunities and qualify for warehouse and forklift operator positions.” Every new skill learned, every certification earned, and every new opportunity brings our neighbors one step closer to long-term financial stability. We’re grateful to The Church of Jesus Christ of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for making these opportunities possible.
