The North Carolina General Assembly is drafting a bill to spend federal COVID-19 relief funds. Help us urge legislators to fund healthy food access programs and services including:

At least $6 million for the North Carolina Feeding the Carolinas food banks
$50,000 to the Food Safety Lab at NC State to develop standard operating procedures and training for how to safely recover unserved prepared food, reducing food waste

Help us ensure that our neighbors have access to nutritious food.
