Rachel Freeman School of Engineering is located in Wilmington, NC. Over 95% of students at Freeman are from economically disadvantaged homes. Less than 10% of the students are kindergarten ready when they start school.  Reading is essential in helping  students achieve their goals.  The Freeman library is in much need of current and engaging books.  Many of the current books are tattered and worn from over  20 years in circulation and the content is no longer current or relevant.  Would you consider buying a book to add to the Freeman Library collection.

The mission of the Food Bank of the Albemarle is to fight hunger and poverty in our 15-county area in northeast North Carolina.  In 2020 we funded two projects for Food Bank of the Albemarle.   

Total Donation:  $13,000

Cooler Expansion – Beaufort County
The cooler/freezer project in Beaufort County will allow the food pantry there to capture more fresh produce throughout the year from both the food sourced by local farmers, as well as retail donations by partners such as Food Lion and Walmart. The $8,000 of funding is the final push to complete this project.

Each year in northeastern North Carolina, approximately 44 Million lbs. of produce goes unharvested. Expansion of capacity and cooler space will allow this partner agency to receive and distribute more produce each year. 

The hunger-relief partner serves 6 counties in northeastern North Carolina, and before COVID was serving approximately 70-80 boxes of food per month. During COVID to present, they are serving 100 boxes each week to people in need. The effects of COVID has created unemployment at record highs, and is forcing many people to seek assistance today and we are expecting this continue for quite some time.

The cooler/freezer expansion is going to allow this food pantry to receive thousands of pounds of fresh produce and frozen meat each month for distribution. Capacity, especially cooler space, is one of the greatest restrictions that Food Banks and our hunger-relief partners have.

OBX Mobile Pantries
Food Bank of the Albemarle operates 3 mobile food pantries in the Outer Banks Area: Mann’s Harbor, Manteo, and Colington. Each of these serves approximately 20-50 households each month. These mobiles support both local and seasonal workers and their families, all year long. COVID has forced much of the restaurant and hospitality industry to reduce their workforce.
