I recently volunteered with the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina through Wings Up for Wilmington. I learned that in the 34 NC counties this food bank supports, 6,000 families are hungry. For 2.5 hours, we packaged 3-pound bags of peppers and 7-pound bags of potatoes. By the end of our shift, we had packaged over 4,000 pounds of food for those in need, feeding 3,000 people. This was such a rewarding volunteer experience because we were able to help our community and surrounding areas.
Gave 2.50 hours on 09/18/2026 with University of North Carolina Wilmington
