Combined efforts from ECI’s corporate office and communities generated $36k and more than 400 food items, equating to over 100,000 meals for families across Georgia through the Atlanta Community Food Bank
ECI Group proudly continued its longstanding support of both the Atlanta Apartment Association and the Atlanta Community Food Bank through this year’s Food-A-Thon— the nation’s largest food drive. Each year, the Food-A-Thon brings together the multifamily industry and the ACFB in a shared mission to fight hunger across Georgia, and in 2025, ECI Group once again rose to the occasion.
Through combined efforts from the corporate office and participating apartment communities, ECI raised an impressive $35,967 and contributed more than 400 food items, earning Second Place in this year’s AAA Food-A-Thon. This achievement highlights the dedication, generosity, and teamwork of ECI staff across the organization and reinforces our commitment to supporting the Atlanta Community Food Bank’s essential work in our area.
In addition to financial contributions, ECI Group enjoyed a full season of activities across various Food-A-Thon events. Teams came together for a hands-on volunteer day at the Atlanta Community Food Bank, rolled through the streets during the energetic Food-A-Thon Parade, and closed out the season with an incredible evening at the annual CanCan Ball with industry colleagues. These shared experiences strengthened team connections and deepened our appreciation for the ACFB’s mission.
Food-A-Thon remains one of ECI Group’s most meaningful annual traditions. Each year, it unites corporate staff, onsite teams, residents, and vendor partners in a collective effort to make a tangible difference in our community. From fundraising to volunteering to showing up at events throughout the season, our teams continue to demonstrate the heart of who we are and the communities we serve.
ECI Group looks forward to building on this momentum in the year ahead and remains dedicated to uplifting our communities through continued partnership with the Atlanta Community Food Bank and the Atlanta Apartment Association.
