Virtually celebrating, connecting and contributing in support of MOWOCNC
In 2021 we are going virtual!
Join us for a fun evening of celebration, engaging storytelling, delicious food, and community connection! In the past, over 200 of our volunteers, donors and friends have gathered at D4O. This year, although virtual, we hope even more will join in! We can't wait to "see" you there! All participants on the zoom are eligible to win fun door prizes including tickets to next season's UNC v Duke football game or a signed UNC championship basketball from the 2016-17 season!

Due to COVID-19 MOWOCNC has pivoted from daily hot meal delivery and check-ins, to once a week delivery of frozen meal boxes and phone check-ins 2-3x/week. We also distribute emergency food and supply boxes to recipients in need of extra support during the pandemic. In 2020, we served over 17,000 more meals than we did in 2019. To maintain that level of service, we need your support.
Every ticket purchase directly funds meals delivered.
Choose your own ticket price, funding anywhere from 5 - 260 meals (or more)!
Every ticket option comes with at least one delicious meal from a local restaurant. Meal selections are available after choosing your ticket.
