Atlanta, GA – The Atlanta Apartment
Association’s Food-a-Thon, which is the annual food drive benefiting the
Atlanta Community Food Bank, set a new record this year. The Food-a-thon is the
largest food drive in the state, and this year collected enough nonperishable
food to provide 6.2 million meals to hungry families.

This
accomplishment was particularly worthy of celebrating at CFLane, which received
two awards for its involvement:
·
CFLane received the award for collecting the most food items.
· Carrington
Point Apartments in Douglasville, Ga., which CFLane manages, received the
award for creating the Best Food Drive Display.
“Our industry had its best year yet and exceeded
expectations for the food drive,” said CFLane’s Director of Marketing &
Training Ka'Ren Sarvis. “Plus, our CFLane family went above and beyond
to make a difference in fighting hunger.”
