A $5 donation provides 25 meals. So every little bit really makes a difference!
The food bank has been a vital source of food for many victims of Hurricane Florence. Thousands of victims are still recovering from the devastating storm. Plus, one in four children in North Carolina are food insecure.
Your donations can help make sure the food bank is able to provide for these people.
Thanks to our partners: Food Lion, BASF, US Foods, and the Junior League of Fayetteville for their support.
Buy a $5 pre-packaged box or donate non-perishable items at your local Food Lion store, or call (844) 346-9886 to donate!
