Support Neighborhood Fundraiser for Capital Area Food Bank

/ Anna White

Let’s keep food on the table during the holidays!

The North Woodside Civil Resistance Group is teaming up with the Capital Area Food Bank to provide healthy food to families in need. One in three people in our region struggled with hunger last year.  Job instability for furloughed and fired federal workers, inflation, and rising food costs are compounding the problem for many families in our area.  None of our neighbors should face hunger, especially during the holidays. 

Together, we can make a difference for our neighbors. For every dollar we raise, the Capital Area Food Bank can provide two healthy meals. That’s good food today for a bright future tomorrow. 

Let’s make it happen! Our goal is to raise $5,000 this holiday season. Every dollar counts. To donate, visit give.capitalareafoodbank.org/team/786138.

Sincerely,
The North Woodside Civil Resistance Group

In the spirit of giving, we will have a bin available for donations of non-perishable food items for the Capital Area Food Bank. If you prefer to make a cash donation to the food bank, please click here.

We will also be collecting cash donations to support the Community Tree Lighting.

Hope to see you there!
