Our History

This community-based organization first began to provide toiletry items and clothing for those experiencing homelessness in Atlanta, GA. The founders united based on their shared values of service, equity, and community engagement and later expanded services to assist Howard University students experiencing food insecurity. Today, Good Girls x Good Guys Inc. remains a catalyst for positive social change by providing book scholarships for high school students, opportunities for food security, and commitment to community service in their respective hometowns.
