Fundraising Closures

On the days of our two fundraising events, we do not deliver meals to clients. We provide a frozen meal the day before these events.

Winter Weather Closures

To ensure the safety of our volunteers and staff, we may close during winter weather.  If we are closed due to inclement weather, we update our voice mail (828-253-5286) by 7 AM and post on social media.

You may also tune into WLOS-TV for weather closing announcements.

Prior to winter, we provide clients “snow boxes” filled with five days of non-perishable meals. When we are closed, clients eat meals from their “snow boxes”.
