The membership of The Hungry Club Forum of Savannah, Inc. (HCFS) is “hungry” for: Equity, Peace, Knowledge, Justice, Fellowship, Prosperity, Love, Justice, Friendship, Parity, Success, Good Citizenship and Goodwill.
The centerpiece of The HCFS, the monthly breakfast and open forum series, is patterned after the decades-old Atlanta forum, and provides a unique opportunity for representatives of a broad range of the total Savannah and Coastal Area community to hear from noted individuals, both local, and from other areas, who have a message of growth, progress and inspiration for the community. The forums are held on the first Saturday of each month, in the Multipurpose Annex of the West Broad Street YMCA, located at 1110 May Street, beginning at 9:30 AM.
Founded in May 2006, The HCFS has developed and conducted nearly 60 educational, economic empowerment and cultural enrichment programs:
• Monthly breakfast open forums and roundtable discussions.
