Recipient Testimonials
We have nothing but praise and admiration for Feeding Charlotte. In March 2020, our church was suddenly closed due to the pandemic and so was a new feeding ministry we had just begun for the unchurched community surrounding our church. A week after the closing, Kim Aprill at Feeding Charlotte came to the rescue with an offer of prepared hot food for a 4-week period. With just 2 people in the kitchen filling to-go plates and 4 people and a truck, we began to delivered weekly meals to a low income and HUD-subsidized apartment complex in East Charlotte near our church. The 4 weeks turned into 10 weeks and even beyond to the present.
We are sincerely indebted to Feeding Charlotte for enabling us to continue the work of our church even while our church was closed. Feeding Charlotte is such a fun group to work with and they go beyond just supplying food to their partners – hosting fun events and Kim and Mendy have even been out to help us hand out the to-go plates. Feeding Charlotte is an organization we are proud and privileged to be partnered with and it has enabled us to put over 10,000 meals into the hands of those who need it most and who are lined up outside their apartment building each week waiting for our arrival.

We at Champion House Of Care Project One, are proud to say that our food source provides fresh, healthy meals to those kids who live in the hotels or are even homeless. Our food provides our community families with the essential nutrients that are needed to promote healthy eating. This operation has an impact on many; the individuals are feeling nourished which ignites the mind, and physical wellness so they can do the absolute best while in school.
This act of human kindness promotes and fosters trust with the families in our community. We have seen our numbers growing but many are so appreciative of the services we are able to assist our families. We are looking forward to keeping this relationship that we have established with Feeding Charlotte.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have made SO many connections with SO many donors through the work of the folks at Feeding Charlotte. Because of those connections and donations, we’ve been able to consistently provide meals to dozens of West Charlotte families since 2019. Also as a result of those connections and donations, we have recently been able to establish a program that provides meals to our homeless neighbors in Uptown Charlotte. God bless you, Feeding Charlotte!
