Here’s a local cause we can all get behind.

Every dollar you donate will be doubled during the Stop Summer Hunger gift-matching campaign, happening this June + July at the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina.

Donations are most needed during the summer when school meals aren’t available to the 400,000+ children who experience food insecurity here in NC.

You can also help by donating non-perishable food or by volunteering at the Food Bank’s warehouses + gardens.
