Biden Harris Inaugural Day of Service: Monday January 18 Food Drive For Nourish NC
When: Monday, January 18, 1:00 to 3:00 p.m.
Where: New Hanover County Democratic Party headquarters parking lot, 5041 New Centre Drive, Wilmington
The Biden/Harris Inaugural Committee has challenged Democrats to commit to a Day of Service on Monday January 18th, Martin Luther King Day. On that day New Hanover Democrats traditionally march in the MLK parade. Sadly, because of Covid 19, there won't be an MLK Parade this year. Instead, the New Hanover County Democratic Party has planned a contactless, drive-through food bank in the parking lot at our office, at 5041 New Centre Drive, from 1-3 pm. We plan to set up a drive-through lane which will enable you to drop off food without leaving your car. Volunteers will be available to receive donations or retrieve them from your trunk.
We are collecting food items for Nourish NC, which is actively working to feed hungry children. Nourish reports that 1 in 5 children in New Hanover struggle with hunger, and it has only gotten worse with Covid, which has suspended in-person teaching and increased unemployment and other hardship. Here"s a video about their work. If it's more convenient you can drop off a check made out to Nourish NC.
Here's what they need most:
Best,
Richard Poole, Chair
