A Coalition is Born – 2016

2016
We have joined forces with Warrior Overwatch from Winder Ga. and with STAGVETSINC from Milledgeville GA.

Comfort Farms is a working farm in a secret location in middle Georgia where we work with our veterans to get them the therapy they have earned and get them back into society in a productive fashion. We specialize in recreating that feeling for Veterans of contributor, that feeling of belonging and brotherhood. Check out Jon’s Story at www.stagvetsinc.com

Warrior Overwatch has broken ground in North Ga. working on herbs and root plants, they have also become the test site for an aquaponics system, were very excited for their growth in the new developments right around the corner. Stay tuned to see the amazing work this team puts together for our Georgia Veterans.

2017

We are proud to announce the beginning of our breeding system in Georgia, we will breed AKC registered German Shepherds so that we can enhance the quality of life for our Veterans in need of “Service Dogs!” Every service dog provided by Freedom Breeders will be provided on a contract basis 100% and donated to the Veteran to ensure a positive healthy environment for the Veteran and the service Dog.

New Partnerships & Reaching new Heights in 2014

We are very proud to share that our 2014 effort has surpassed all previous years. We provided food to over 4 thousand humans- one plate at a time. We had over 125 volunteers, many of which were college students who took time from their holiday time while at home visiting their relatives. Our efforts continue to grow and we could not be happier, this year we have partnered with the Effie Foundation to create more events and continue spreading our outreach throughout the state of Georgia.

This year our CHRISTmas dinner included, rotisserie wood roasted turkey with gravy, homemade macaroni and cheese, a traditional bread & sage stuffing and bottled water. Our collective efforts included the help of over 126 teen aged youth and over 70 adults. Together we were able to feed 2969 friends in four cities across Georgia. We also donated 800 portions of  roasted turkey and dressing to the Fort Street United Methodist Church in Atlanta. Thanks to so many for their donations and volunteer time which helped our nonprofit organization provide the largest number of meals served in our communities in our history.
