There will be a vigil tonight at 7:30pm in CCB plaza for Sonya Massey. (This is not a DCIA event, but we sometimes share events on social media for partner organizations or that are important for our community.)

We have books! Come to our Connecting Clergy luncheon on Aug.20 or our assembly in September to receive this gift from author John J. Berger, Solving the Climate Crisis. For anyone interested, we can/will hold a book discussion this fall.

Food distribution this week at the Food Bank!

⏰TIME: 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM/PM

⚠THESE ARE ALL THE LOCATIONS WE HAVE CURRENTLY

🌟Helpful Tip: If you are in need of assistance and a Pop-Up Market is not close by, please, use one of our amazing Partner Agencies. They can provide more personalized care, sometimes provide more than food even, and they are getting the same items that we are serving at our Pop-Ups. Find an agency near you by visiting foodbankcenc.org/foodfinder and typing in your zip code to the search bar. It will generate Partner Agencies and list them from closest to farthest from you.

🛑DO NOT ARRIVE before the scheduled market time - our staff and volunteers need that time to prepare for the market so that everyone has the best time possible.

📦And please, bring your own bags or boxes if possible.

⚠These are ALL the locations we have so far. We do plan on expanding the program to include more locations, but it is a work in progress. When we do have new locations, it will be posted ASAP.

Join us in Durham, NC with Jonathon Wilson-Hartgrove this tomorrow to talk w/ about WHITE POVERTY
