COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our community on all fronts, affecting residents physically and economically. As one of the states hardest hit by unemployment during the COVID-19 epidemic, North Carolina has a growing population of food-insecure residents who need community support to stay afloat.

To meet this growing need, Abundant Life Community Services, in partnership with the Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina, provides food to those who have recently become food insecure due to the pandemic. We have ramped up our food delivery services, including a socially distant drive-through food distribution operation. To date, we have served over 40,000 pounds of food during the pandemic.
