Did you know? There are more than 607,000 people across Central and Eastern North Carolina who don’t know where their next meal is coming from.

September is Hunger Action Month, and Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina needs as much help as possible meeting this challenge head-on.

Here are 3 ways you can actively support:

  • Donate | Whether you make a one-time contribution or become a monthly sustainer, all donations go directly toward making sure the Food Bank can continue to meet growing demand.
  • Volunteer | Register online to help the Food Bank sort, pack, and distribute food throughout the community.
  • Advocate | Find opportunities to use your voice and advocate for changes that will ensure our communities have access to the support they need.

Bonus: These limited-edition Hunger Action Month t-shirts are available during September only.
