Starting November 1, thousands of our neighbors in High Point will lose access to SNAP and WIC benefits due to the government shutdown. Families who rely on these programs to put food on the table will suddenly face impossible choices.

 

The Greater High Point Food Alliance, along with additional community partners, is launching Fill the Gap to bridge this critical need. Every dollar you give goes directly to our local food pantries and providers, who provide emergency food assistance to families, children, and seniors caught in this crisis.

​

• Greater High Point Food Alliance - Donated dollars will support food pantries within the greater High Point area, including Archdale, Trinity, and Jamestown.

• A Simple Gesture  – Donated dollars will support food pantries in Greensboro and other areas of Guilford County.

 

Together, we want to support our local food pantries across Guilford County.

No child should wonder where their next meal will come from. No senior should have to choose between food and medicine. No family should face an empty pantry because of a government shutdown.
