We’re starting early to prepare for the upcoming holiday season. Our youth ministry at Good News Ministries in Charlotte, NC is believing God to feed 200 families 100 families for Thanksgiving and 100 families for Christmas.

Most of our youth are under the age of 13, yet they are committed, excited, and ready to serve our city with compassion, love, and generosity. We may be small in number but we are BIG in heart.

Food stamps are being reduced, benefits are being cut, and families are struggling more than ever. We refuse to let anyone in our community go hungry this holiday season.

$40 feeds a family of 10.

Your donation directly sponsors a Holiday Meal Box for a family in need.

• Whole Turkey

• Chicken Broth

• Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup

Each box will also include a handwritten card from our youth + a QR code to access our Holiday Recipe Book.

Publix has already partnered with us through donated gift cards and now, we are asking the community to join hands with us, so we can serve the community TOGETHER.

Every dollar raised goes toward feeding families.

This is a 501(c)(3) community outreach effort through Good News Ministries.
