FOOD DRIVES

 

Thank you to our PORCH sponsor for 2012

Chapel Hill Tire Car Care Center contributes $.30 for every pound of food donated by the PORCH programs at Governor’s Club and Fearrington Village. So far this year, these programs have contributed more than 16,000 pounds of food to CORA!!! For more information on PORCH and how you can start a PORCH program in your neighborhood, contact Beth Budd at execdirector@corafoodpantry.org or call 919-545-3030.

Community food drives form a major component of the food supplies we provide to families in need. Most food drives are held during the autumn and holiday seasons and CORA’s storerooms are usually full to brimming in early January. However, by April or early May, this abundance grows thin, and we rely on food purchases for most of what we hand out.

The need for emergency food support extends year round. During the summer months when federally subsidized school lunches are unavailable, food support is even more pressing for needy families. This makes spring and summer food drives an increasingly important source of food for CORA.

You can help. If you or your organization would like to host a food drive, please contact our office at 542-5020 and ask for Food Drive information. We can help you get it organized and give you a pre-designed flyer to customize for your organization. You can also send an email requesting information to projectcoordinator@corafoodpantry.org or contact the CORA Food Drive Coordinator:  Patricia Jackson at pmjacks@bellsouth.net or 932-6188.

Thanks to all of the organizations that conducted a food drive for CORA

Your generosity is greatly appreciated!
