About Restoring One’s Hope of Atlanta

​ROHA is a nonprofit organization working with individuals and families to end homelessness in Atlanta, Georgia. ROHA understands that thousands of homeless men, women, and children are unsheltered in Atlanta and go day-by-day without eating.

Restoring One’s Hope of Atlanta, Inc. (ROHA) is a nonprofit organization that provides food security to the unhoused population in Atlanta, Georgia. Our mission is to restore hope to the hopeless through our hunger relief efforts. Ms. Brittany Johnson is the Founder and Executive Director of the organization. Restoring One’s Hope was founded in 2019 and, to date, has provided over 9,000 free meals and hygiene items to the underserved population in The City of Atlanta. We have increased their efforts from serving once a month to serving on a weekly basis. Our economic impact since 2019 in the Atlanta area is approximately $200,000.00 through monetary and in-kind donations. Some of our corporate sponsors or contributors are Ebenezer Baptist Church, Chick-fil-a, Kroger, Walmart, Publix, Pepsi, State Farm, Atlanta Dream, McKesson, and much more. We are working diligently to increase our impact to provide additional meals, clothes, hygiene items, and linkage to resources to those in need.
