On Saturday, November 15, 2025, Peachtree City hosted a “Family Football Saturday — Community Food and Clothing Drive” at Drake Field, partnering with the Midwest Food Bank and Bloom (a clothing/young-adult clothing nonprofit). Residents were invited to bring nonperishable foods and gently used shoes and clothes for children, teens, and young adults. The Citizen+1

The event blended community gathering, charity, and goodwill — providing a chance for neighbors to help neighbors during the holiday season. Organizers emphasized the spirit of giving: “When we come together … we strengthen the bonds that make this city so special.” The Citizen

Why It’s a Big Deal — Close to Home and Close to Heart

• It’s within reach. Peachtree City is well within 50 miles of Newnan — making this more than just “charity somewhere far away.” It’s local, accessible, and relevant to folks in our region.

• It underscores community values. Food insecurity, especially around the holidays, hits home for many families. This drive helped bring needed supplies — food, clothing, shoes — to people who might struggle otherwise.

• It shows that small-town/near-town communities still care. Events like this remind us that beyond the hustle, there are people who give back: neighbors, volunteers, organizations — working together to uplift others.

What It Means for People in the Region (and Home-Seekers)

For those of us in Newnan or nearby towns — or anyone exploring real estate, lifestyle, or community feel in the area — this kind of event highlights more than just houses and roads. It shows real community heart: neighbors helping neighbors, local organizations stepping up, and a culture of giving.

This is exactly the kind of community and lifestyle value the Macaroni Homes Team, led by Sheree Macaroni believes in — not just selling homes, but promoting communities where neighbors care and support each other.
