Our Christmas wish is a table filled for every family. And right now, your generosity can make that possible. For the second year in a row, more families have come for food than even during the height of COVID. Lines are lengthening at all our pantries — and your gift today will help ensure no neighbor faces this struggle alone. 

Food insecurity is rising while safety nets shrink, and Union County remains the only county in our region with no improvement in upward mobility. Families working hard every day are still one unexpected expense away from crisis. That’s why your kindness matters so deeply.

Betty is a senior adult who receives monthly food deliveries from a caring volunteer. When her Ally arrived recently, she discovered that Betty had been without electricity for five days and her phone was dead. She helped make the calls and payments to restore power — and stayed with her until the lights came back on.

For Betty and thousands of our neighbors, a full table means food, yes — but also connection, safety, and the relief of knowing someone cares. That’s the kind of hope you make possible. Your generosity fuels this small revolution of kindness — filling empty cupboards today and opening doors to stability tomorrow. You show families they’re not forgotten.

As we enter this season of giving, will you help make our Christmas wish come true? Your gift today will bring comfort, nourishment, and hope — a full table for neighbors across our community.

Wishing you a table filled with love, hope and friendship,

Keith Adams, Executive Director
