| Five N Two Food Pantry Sanford, NC 27332 919.499.1668 |
Details: The Five N Two relies on the generosity of those in our community. Through a variety of means, God provides food and monetary donations to keep the pantry stocked. Here are some of the ways in which God has provided for us: Every day, we have a food truck that makes runs to different grocery stores in our area. These stores provide us with fruits, vegetables, meats, and other foods. We purchase food at a drastically reduced rate from Second Harvest Food Bank. Several times a year, we organize fundraisers in the community. Individuals come into the pantry every week to make donations. Some individuals give money and others donate food items. Different organizations in our area put together food drives or fundraisers in our honor. It takes the entire community for the pantry to meet the needs of those around us. We are so thankful to the organizations and individuals that support the ministry. |
| BreadBasket of Sanford Sanford, NC 27330 919.774.3118 |
Details: In 1989, a group of people - mostly from St. Thomas Episcopal Church - wanted to start a program to feed needy people in Lee County. After much planning, The Breadbasket opened its doors in September 1990. In 1991, 8,358 plates were served. The menu consisted of soup and sandwiches. As time passed, the meal became more of a home-cooked-style meal, which today consists of at least one meat, two vegetables, usually a salad, tea and dessert. Through generous donations from individuals, churches and businesses, an 1,800-square-foot building with industrial cooking equipment was opened on East Chisholm Street in 2002, where we now operate. |
