Calling all friends of Food for Thought! We need your support in preparing to feed area kids. Food for Thought has a unique opportunity to receive a $2500 matching grant from the Outer Banks Community Foundation if $2500 is raised from donors by Nov. 30, 2017.
For example, if 125 contributors donate $20, the goal will be met, growing Food for Thought’s endowment fund, established in early 2000 with OBGF, helping ensure it will benefit children for generations.
This program is making a positive difference. Thanks to generous community members, Food for Thought has helped to feed more than 5,900 children healthy meals, building strong minds on the Outer Banks over the last 11 years.
Currently, Food for Thought is feeding an average of more than 600 children every week during the school year. These combined funds of $5,000 will help feed 20 children much needed healthy meals every weekend for an entire school year.
