Let's keep Athens
restaurants busy
and our healthcare
workers well fed.
Life in Athens has been upended by the coronavirus, and
the people most affected are those in the restaurant and healthcare industries. This site was created as a means to help both. Through the generosity of many, we hope to provide business to valued local restaurants while feeding healthcare providers working tirelessly on behalf of our community.

A note to Athens Restaurants:
The Athens page went live on 4/21. Our goal is to ensure that the food being delivered to hospitals has been safely prepared and delivered. If you have a restaurant that would like to participate, please email mealbridgedc@gmail.com. Our intention is to support as many local restaurants as possible, but bear with us as this is a grassroots effort.

A bit about The Meal Bridge
In response to the coronavirus pandemic, The Meal Bridge was started
by an Atlanta family to help people working in the restaurant and healthcare fields. Fortunately, the idea has been well received beyond Atlanta.
We are happy to welcome Athens, GA as the next city to join the effort.
