Raleigh soup kitchen in dire need of donations to feed hundreds of hungry men and women
After the hustle and bustle of Black Friday and Cyber Monday -- there's Giving Tuesday, a time to slow down and focus on volunteering and donating to those in need.
Posted — UpdatedOne Raleigh soup kitchen says they are in dire need, as they try to help the growing number of people who are homeless or hungry.
"We posted a $20,000 loss last quarter, which has never happened in the history of our kitchen opening in 1980," said Gregory.
That's despite the fact that more people are moving to Raleigh - where new homes, high rise apartments and new corporate office buildings are multiplying.
"We could really use their money too, since they're part of this community now themselves," she said.
Right now, the kitchen now has plenty of volunteers - and gifts of donated food. Financial donations are now what they desperately need through the holidays and beyond.
"Realize what it is to have a meal each day on your table – and for those who don't, you can buy one for them," she said. "Just do what you need to do to help someone else this holiday season."
