6th Annual Bull City Foodraiser!
Donation protected
Since 2015, each December we have raised money to provide groceries to elementary school kids attending the poorest schools in Durham NC USA, to help their families make it through the winter with enough to eat.
We started with just a few boxes of groceries out of T. Greg's old Hyundai (more pictures here) to feed one class...
A few years later in 2018 we fed an entire elementary school...
And by our 5th year this last December, things got so big we needed an actual box truck from Lowe's to transport everything!
We ended up with enough groceries for EVERY. SINGLE. STUDENT at three whole schools!!!
We're doing it again for Year 6, and we want to keep things growing – especially now with a pandemic and rising food insecurity in the area – but we also want to keep the logistics manageable. So this year we're aiming for $14,000 in all, roughly 10% over last year's total.
Please consider donating here, or use any of the other methods in our Twitter thread on the fundraiser (here's the Twitter thread, and here are the other donation options!).
BONUS: for each individual donor, we have *12 people* who have committed to kicking in $2 apiece -- so every donation is going to trigger +$24 in matches!
DOUBLE BONUS: 100% of everything you donate goes to the kids! This is an all-volunteer operation with $0 overhead!
TRIPLE BONUS: all donations are tax-deductible! You can access the Foundation's tax information on the IRS website here!
Thank you in advance for your support, and please tell a friend!
