Donations of Non-Perishable Items

At the We Care House, we believe that together, we can make a significant impact on alleviating hunger in our community. We've come up with a simple yet effective way for you to contribute – by donating food based on your last name. It's an easy and meaningful way to ensure that families in need receive the nourishment they deserve.

Please help with donating non-perishable food items (review the “Food Share” list).  You can bring all donated items to the We Care House on the first and third Saturdays, from 9:00 AM – 12 noon. 

Find your last name's designated food item and contribute to this important cause. Your generosity is deeply appreciated. Here's a simple guide on what food items to bring based on the first letter of your last name:

A - B Canned Goods

C - D Grits and Oatmeal

E - F Canned Vegetables

G - I Breakfast Cereals

J - K Dry Pastas, Macaroni, Sauces

L - M Canned Meats

Will you help us alleviate food insecurity in our community?

Between 2010-16 North Carolina has regularly ranked among the top ten states with the highest percentage of citizens experiencing food shortages; over 1,764,000 of our neighbors or nearly one in six.

NC has several cities with some of the highest levels of food insecurity in the nation: Greensboro, High Point, and Winston-Salem.

Our annual We Care Run/Walk for Hunger 5K will be held on Saturday, November 18, 2023. This year’s race will be LIVE and will also have a virtual component. In 2021, the We Care Run/Walk for Hunger 5K raised $11,768 to provide food to children and families in our community through the We Care House and the We Care Vegetable Garden. This year, our goal is $40,000.
