$5K Goal for NFCCA Community Cares Campaign

By Sharon Canavan

The Woodmoor-Pinecrest Civic Association reached out to NFCCA to challenge our community to participate in the “Season’s Feedings Showdown 2025” to raise donations to the Capital Area Food Bank.  Challenge Accepted!

Our NFCCA COMMUNITY CARES campaign set what we hope is an achievable goal of $5,000 to support our neighbors in need.  But if we want to beat the Woodmoor-Pinecrest team, we’ll have to work harder, because their goal is $10,000.  As this newsletter goes to print, our NFCCA neighbors have donated $2,473, but Woodmoor-Pinecrest is nipping at our heels with a total of $2,225 in contributions.

Federal Reductions in Force and the recent government shutdown have had a real impact on food banks and the people they serve.  The Capital Area Food Bank service area is home to 20% of the federal workforce, many of whom have missed at least two paychecks since October 1st.  In the last several weeks, Capital Area Food Bank has been serving federal workers at five different supplemental sites to address the increased need.

To donate, the fundraising page for the NFCCA COMMUNITY CARES campaign can be accessed at the link below.

This campaign runs through the end of 2025.  Thank you for supporting the Capital Area Food Bank and our neighbors in need this holiday season, and good luck in this year’s showdown!   ■
