When tragedy strikes both near and far, we are often reminded of those who may be facing challenges and difficult situations unfamiliar to us. May we use this time to focus on others in need.

First and foremost, please assist your neighbors and fellow Carolinians that may be in need in the wake of the recent storm.

AJC’s annual Food Fight is back and will take place Saturday, November 9 from 11:30 a.m. – 2 p.m.! There are three ways to connect with this event:

  • Home Chef/ Restaurant Owner or Caterer: Registration deadline is Oct.25. Compete to be named the “best of” in categories of salads, noodles/pasta, meat/protein, or desserts. Email [email protected] for more info.
  • Event Volunteer: Email [email protected] if interested in volunteering.
  • Play. Support: Save the date! Check the Food Fight event website for additional details. Tickets will be on sale October 10.

AJC currently has supply needs to support our cooking classes, street outreach food pantry, and more.  Please check the following lists if you’d like to hold a drive or simply purchase any of these much-needed items!

Charles Dickens once wrote, “No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.” May we all find a way to lessen the burden of another this October.
