Celebrating Our 2025 Giving Campaign & Community Support

Earlier this school year, we launched our 2025 Giving Campaign — A Decade of Difference: Feeding Kids Together — with the hopeful goal of raising $100,000 to strengthen and grow our work of providing food and books to children and families in need across Cleveland County.

The response to this year’s campaign has been nothing short of inspiring. Thanks to the generosity of our community, we have exceeded our fundraising goal.

This post celebrates our incredible 2025 sponsors!

A Decade of Difference: Feeding Kids Together

We hope you will consider supporting our 2025-26 Giving Campaign!

Our fundraising goal this year is $100,000 as we celebrate 10 years of Feeding Kids Cleveland County.

Feeding Kids Cleveland County is honored to celebrate 10 years of serving children and families—and even more humbled to have been named the 2024 Non-Profit of the Year by the Cleveland County Chamber. This recognition affirms what we know to be true: our community believes in caring for its most vulnerable members.

As we launch our Decade of Difference: Feeding Kids Together campaign for the 2025–2026 school year, we invite you to join us as a sponsor and help expand our impact.

Together, we will deliver fresh food, non-perishables, and books to more than 880 children during school breaks and summer months; serve over 1,500 meals at our annual Community Table Thanksgiving event; distribute books through our Reading Kids program and new Little Free Libraries; and provide at least 162 weekend food bags each week to students experiencing hunger.

Our goal this year is to raise $100,000, with sponsorships beginning at just $360—a level where every supporter can make a difference. Your sponsorship provides food, stories, and stability for local children while being recognized publicly through social media, signage, and printed materials.

Commitments are due by November 4, 2025. With your partnership, we can make the next decade even more impactful for the children and families we serve.
