2025 Share Your Christmas Food Drive with WCTI 12 & Piggly Wiggly

We're joining our friends at News Channel 12 and Piggly Wiggly for the 2025 Share Your Christmas Drive.

Every day, families are making impossible choices — between food and utilities, gas and medicine, rent and childcare. Right now, more than 120,000 children, adults, and seniors in the New Bern and Greenville area don’t have the resources to consistently keep food on the table. And the impact of the recent shutdown has made the existing hunger crisis even worse, just as we approach the holidays 

That’s why the Food Bank is joining News Channel 12 and local Piggly Wiggly stores for the 2025 Share Your Christmas Drive. With your support now through December 5, we can meet these challenges head-on — and make a difference for thousands of neighbors facing hunger. 

• Donate funds online
• Collect the nonperishable foods our communities need most

Every bit of support brings us one step closer to a future where no one goes hungry. Let’s take action together to end hunger in our communities 

WCTI 12 will broadcast live from Piggly Wiggly stores in the Food Bank’s eastern service area each day from Monday, December 1 – Friday, December 5, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. – 6:30 p.m.

Join us from 11:00 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. at the following locations:

Mon 12/1 – Richlands – 8406 Richlands Hwy.

Tue 12/2 – Beaufort – 1500 Live Oak St.

Wed 12/3 – Swansboro – 715 W. Corbett Ave.

Thu 12/4 – Kinston – 2240 Hwy 258 North

Fri 12/5 – New Bern – 1208 Simmons St.

The need for support has never been greater — and every $10 donation provides 50 meals!
