Friend,

When you’re a single mom to two teenaged boys, a hectic life is a given. Kayla* organizes her life around getting the boys to football practice and band practice.

But since the car accident that took the boys’ father away, Kayla’s been the sole breadwinner, and life is even more hectic as she tries to squeeze in a few extra shifts at work. Teenaged boys are always hungry, and they need to eat healthy foods to pursue their dreams.

Kayla’s considering skipping meals to make the food budget stretch a little further and ensure she can pay the electric bill. She’s just worried how that will affect her performance at work.

Friend, today only, a special $10,000 Flash Match will triple your impact for moms like Kayla in honor of International Women’s Month. Your gift right now can triple in value so that no one in the family has to go hungry.

That means every $10 you give can provide 90 meals instead of 30. Please do what you can. If you’re able to add a little extra to your gift, even your most generous support can go twice as far to help parents, seniors, and veterans in our community.

With federal funding cuts to hunger relief programs in 2025, and SNAP cuts looming this year, the challenges facing North Carolina’s moms are only increasing. Your support for the Food Bank gives them another option. Together, we can provide the safety net of healthy, fresh, familiar ingredients through a local food pantry to see them through setbacks. Thank you for giving today!
