  • Community Food Program The community food program is a program geared toward feeding the hungry in our community, Children, Seniors, and less fortunate. The program includes Community feeding our Children, Elderly touch of heart, Mobile food program, and emergency food. The mission of the food programs is to maximize the effectiveness of resources including churches, schools, charities, businesses, agencies, and organizations to directly impact children's hunger, especially at those times when hunger is most prevalent. "All will have had access to food boxes, and the tools necessary to achieve success in future endeavors". The emergency food program began in 2006. With this program food is given out to the community through a monthly food drive. In 2009 the elderly touch of heart feeding program began. This food is given specifically to senior citizens through delivery. In 2017 the Community Feeding Our Children (CFOC) program was initiated under the leadership of Rev. Dr. Rodney Coles, Sr., and Jim Hooker the program coordinator. Volunteers deliver Food for Spring Break and Christmas break to families each year to make sure we helped fill the hunger gap for children in Pitt County. In 2020 C.O.N began the Mobile food program. Food is delivered to clients who have an emergency need at present. Volunteers are used to pick up food at a central location and deliver it to clients.
