Cherokee County Employees Create New Food Pantry Twenty-five Cherokee County employees participated in the Carl Vinson Institute of Georgia’s Management Development Program (MDP). As part of the program curriculum, participants complete a project that impacts their community. “As a class, we wanted to complete a project that would benefit our community and be sustainable for years to come,” said Cherokee County Human Resources Director Kathy Lambert. “We quickly narrowed down the underprivileged communities within Cherokee County and discussed what our greatest impact might be in those areas. We decided to build an outdoor food pantry that would be continuously stocked by organizations and private citizens with a heart to help those in need.”The pantry is located outside the Greater Church (5744 Bells Ferry Road, Acworth) and will be available to the public 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
