As the year comes to a close, families across Northwest North Carolina are continuing to face rising costs and difficult choices - between food and medicine, housing and stability. At the same time, programs that support our neighbors are under increasing strain.

Before December 31, you have a powerful opportunity to make a difference.

Your tax-deductible gift today helps ensure families have access to nutritious food when they need it most. Whether it’s a holiday meal, fresh produce for a senior, or groceries for a family working to stay afloat, your generosity puts food on the table and dignity at the center of care.

A gift made by year’s end may also qualify as a charitable deduction on your 2025 taxes- creating impact now while planning wisely for the year ahead.

Together, we can close out this year by choosing hope; ensuring every neighbor has a place at the table and a brighter start to what comes next.

Thank you for your generosity and support.
