World Hunger

This year, we’re embracing an exciting new direction, transitioning from our yard sale fundraiser to a fresh approach that honors our mission while making the most of our resources. Our commitment remains strong, ensuring our impact continues to thrive and expand. Three impactful ways we are uniting against hunger…

DIRECT GIVING: Fund food programs.
Support the same food programs we have for years, locally and globally, by donating today—your gift makes an immediate impact.

COMMUNITY FEAST: Strengthen relationships.
Join us on September 27, 12–2 PM at First Baptist Church Huntersville for a celebration of sharing and connecting with the entire community. Bring a covered dish to share as a way to cultivate generosity and connection.

RESOURCE SHOWCASE: Provide vital resources.
During the community meal on September 27, resource partners will host tables offering information about essential resources for those navigating food insecurities and financial challenges.

A direct giving campaign is a powerful way to ensure donations go straight to food programs without unnecessary overhead. This year, our shared goal is to raise $25,000.

The exciting news is that even with a tight budget, there are countless creative ways to reach your personal giving goal and make an impact.

Each year all of the money raised is used for hunger relief at home and around the world.  All the money is used to feed people, with no money held out for administrative costs.  Beneficiaries include Haiti, Angels & Sparrows Soup KitchenLoaves & Fishes, Caterpillar Ministries, and more.

In 1982, a small men’s prayer breakfast group from the church felt God’s call to feed the hungry around the world.  That first year, a yard sale on the grounds raised more than $1,000 for the World Hunger Fund.  Since then, World Hunger Day at FBC-H has raised thousands of dollars to feed those in need.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars raised. Countless lives touched. The love of Jesus shared through gifts, work, and provisions.
