Right now, more than 560,000 children, adults, and seniors across Central and Eastern North Carolina don’t know where our next meal might come from. Every day, families are making impossible choices — between food and utilities, gas and medicine, rent and childcare. The demand for food assistance in our region has reached a near-record high, greater than even the peak of the pandemic.

With your support throughout Hunger Action Month and beyond, we can meet these challenges head-on. Your action as a donor, volunteer, and advocate helps our network of 700+ anti-hunger organizations provide food to meet families’ immediate need for support — while organizing for the kind of policies and investments we need to end hunger for good in our communities.
