    Info

    "Important update for SNAP recipients: New federal work requirements may affect adults ages 18 to 64 who don't have children under 14. If this applies to you, you may need to report work, training, or volunteer hours each month to keep your benefits. Some people may qualify for an exemption. Timelines vary by state, so don't wait to find out if you're affected. For more information, visit the USDA SNAP Work Requirements page, or contact your local SNAP office or call 211."

    HOW DO YOU APPLY FOR BENEFITS? To apply for benefits, the head of household, a household member, or an authorized person representing the household may complete a paper application, apply online or by phone. A paper application can be received from your local DFCS office, from the DFCS website, or by calling the Customer Contact Center at 1-877-423-4746 to request that an application be mailed to your home address. You may also call the Customer Contact Center to apply by telephone. You may copy the blank application found on the website at: www.dfcs.georgia.gov/snap food-stamps. Complete the form, mail, fax, or take it to your local county office. HOW DO YOU APPLY FOR BENEFITS ONLINE? You may also apply for SNAP benefits online via the Gateway website at https://gateway.ga.gov/access/. Applicants who create an account online may check the status of their application and may also check their eligibility for other DHS programs via the Gateway Pre-screening Tool. Additionally, Gateway allows SNAP recipients to report changes in household circumstances and to renew their benefits online.

  15. Do I need an appointment?

    Every location is different! Some places in 30236 accept appointments, some require it, and others allow walk-ins. Please review all details on the resource page to understand how you should prepare for your visit.

  16. What kind of food do they have?

    Food pantries offer grocery-style items such as canned food, fresh produce, and dry goods like pasta or rice that you can cook yourself. Soup kitchens offer ready-to-eat items like hot meals or sandwiches. All of these locations may have different options on different days, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  17. Do they have vegetables?

    Pantries may have different options at different times, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day. Most pantries in 30236 do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.

  18. Do they have meat?

    Pantries may have different options on different days, so it’s hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  19. Any pantries open today?

    If you’ve signed up for personalized assistance through our text message helpline, please take a look at the links we’ve sent you! If none of the resources we’ve sent are open today, let us know and we can search for additional options. Here’s a list of everything in 30236 that’s open today: Atlanta Community Food Bank @ Jonesboro, Community Outreach In Action, Inc., HOPE Deliverance Ministries Food Pantry, Clayton County Division of Family and Children Services Office

  20. Where are you located?

    Because our work is mostly virtual, the Lemontree team works remotely, and we don’t have an office in 30236 for in-person visits. You can always reach us by texting 90847 or on WhatsApp between 10am-6pm, every day of the week.

  21. Can I get a reminder before my visit?

    Yes! Tap the bell icon on any resource page to set a reminder via text or WhatsApp before it opens, so you don’t forget your visit.

  22. Can I build a weekly food schedule?

    Yes — you can use Lemontree to build a calendar of upcoming pantry visits in 30236 for the week, so you always know where to go and when. It’s a great way to plan ahead and make sure you have food throughout the week.

  23. How do I get help from a real person?

    You can text our helpline at 90847 or reach us on WhatsApp between 10am–6pm, every day of the week. A real person will help you find food in 30236, answer questions, and connect you with the right resources.
