Working Together to Fight Hunger

Access to nutritious food is fundamental to the health and stability of individuals and families.

The Junior League of Raleigh works alongside the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina to help address food insecurity through hands-on volunteer service.

JLR in Action

JLR members volunteer by sorting and packing canned goods, nonperishable foods, and fresh produce for distribution through the Food Bank’s network of partner agencies.

That work helps food move from the Food Bank into communities where it can reach individuals and families who need it.

A volunteer shift may last only a few hours, but those hours become part of a much larger effort to address hunger throughout our region.

Working alongside organizations like the Food Bank allows JLR members to contribute their time where it can make a tangible difference while learning more about the needs facing the communities we serve.
