Local nonprofit helping food insecure people during Thanksgiving

Hosea Helps needs donations for their Thanksgiving food drive.

ATLANTA — An Atlanta nonprofit is asking for donations for several Thanksgiving food drives during the month of November. 

Hosea Helps is a local not-for-profit organization that helps those struggling financially. All year long, the nonprofit puts food on the table for families in need, and this holiday season, they need the public's help. 

The organization said they had seen a 40% increase in calls since the beginning of the year. They said people have told them about deciding between medication and groceries.
