established the project as a 501c3, and led fundraising efforts to support the project. Regina says, “the Full Tummy Project is near and dear to my heart. I will continue to support the project by serving on the Board and being a mentor to Amanda. I am grateful for the opportunity that was put in front of me many years ago. I wasn’t receptive to taking it on at first, but God has certainly blessed me through it. I have faith that Amanda is going to do a fabulous job leading the project, so I am at peace with the changes ahead.”
As the Full Tummy Project moves into this exciting new phase, the organization calls on local businesses, community members, and philanthropic partners to rally behind the Full Tummy Project. By joining forces, we can create a more resilient, food-secure Athens.
