Online Athens: Your Pie to Host First-Ever Your Fest in Athens, Georgia

"I've been wanting to have an event like Your Fest for a very long time," founder Drew French said. "I wanted it to highlight the true core of Your Pie - and that's the community."

A portion of the proceeds from Your Fest will be donated to help end child hunger. The article talks about why French picked the charity, Action Ministries and their Smart Lunch Smart Kids initiative.

During the summer months, “thousands of kids lose the only meal they can count on. We wanted to team up with a charity that has always made a difference in these kids’ lives and help supplement those meals during this time of year,” [Drew] French said. “By bringing hundreds of people together for Your Fest, we’re also helping to raise awareness and get more people involved.”
