RALEIGH, N.C. — First lady Michelle Obama will make a campaign appearance in Raleigh next month, an official with President Barack Obama's campaign said Monday.

Michelle Obama will attend a North Carolina Women for Obama luncheon at the City Center Marriott hotel downtown on March 2. Tickets for the fundraiser start at $500.

It will be her first visit to North Carolina since she and the president went to Fort Bragg in December to greet troops returning from the end of the Iraq war. She also visited Fort Bragg and the Fayetteville area two other times last year.
