Carrboro Elementary School Auditorium on March 22
Have you been hearing about FoodFirst, the Inter-Faith Council's plan to combine its Community Kitchen and Food Pantry into a single operations center in Carrboro?
Co-location of food services in one building will allow IFC to operate at a "best practices" standard: FoodFirst will maximize food, space, staff and volunteer resources resulting in a better way to collect available food and ensure everyone in our community has the necessary nutritional resources to be healthy and strong!
Are you looking for a simple way to show your support? The IFC encourages FoodFirst supporters to attend the public hearing scheduled for 7:30 pm on Tuesday, March 22 at Carrboro Elementary. This is very important because authorizing the proposed text amendment is necessary to allow IFC to apply to build FoodFirst. A strong show of support lets the Carrboro Board of Aldermen know that citizens support food service for hungry people in Carrboro and want to see IFC's plans.
