Food Drive Donation Sites

According to Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC, nearly a quarter of a million people are at risk of hunger across its 18-county service area, including more than 80,000 children. Today, 1 in 10 Americans is food insecure, which means they cannot reliably say where their next meal is coming from. Food is a basic need – the fuel we need to survive and thrive. Hungry children can’t learn and hungry adults can’t work and live productively.

Last year, runners, walkers, community members, neighbors and sponsors donated more than 1,200 pounds of food for the Food Bank. The Ardmore 5K team hopes to collect even more this year and hopes you can help. Food collection bins are at the following locations from now until Oct. 17. You can also donate food at the race on race day.

- Whole Foods Market – 41 Miller Street
- Redeemer School – 1046 Miller Street
- Redeemer Presbyterian Church – 1046 Miller Street

Thank you for helping reduce hunger in our communities!
