“Together We Build, Together We Feed” was the theme for a benefit gala hosted by the Have a Heart Club at Carolina Gardens on Friday March 9th. Over 180 residents attended and supported the dinner auction and raffle. Catering was provided by Anna’s; two local bands, the Tar Heel Time Machine, and Still Kickin’ donated their musical services. Over 50 volunteers, all residents of Carolina Gardens, planned, set up, decorated and served at the event. >>> Residents, along with food pantry volunteers and a few outside vendors, donated raffle and auction items. >>> An incredible $30,000 was raised for the Fuquay Varina Emergency Food Pantry. These funds will be directed to the pantry’s future building, which is needed to support the growing needs of our community.

We were able to pause to acknowledge additional blessings today. We have secured sufficient funds to add two more bricks, each symbolizing $25K and bringing us closer to our objective of $1M.

Since 2001, The Fuquay-Varina Emergency Food Pantry has been leasing space in what is now a 69-year-old building. While the space was adequate when serving 200 and up to 300 families per month, we have since outgrown it. We are currently serving 450 to 500 families per month, or roughly 1,700 individuals. We have been forced to store food in two warehouses and have now rented two pods for additional storage. We have had to borrow space in refrigerators and freezers when local churches allow and often have to store frozen food temporarily in refrigerators. In summary, we have outgrown our building; we need more space and adequate freezing and refrigerating capacity.
We have been able to acquire land on which to build our own Food Pantry but do not currently have the funds to build. This is why we need your help.
