Millbrook supports the following ministries in an effort to help alleviate hunger through our direct involvement and/or through our financial support.

Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina – A non-profit organization that provides food to people at risk of hunger in 34 counties in central and eastern North Carolina. In 2008-09, the Food Bank distributed over 36.8 million pounds of food through 800 partner agencies including soup kitchens, food pantries, shelters, and after school programs for children.

CROP Walk – Millbrook adults, youth and children participate in efforts to raise money for the CROP Walk each year. Most of the money goes to the international relief and development efforts of Church World Service. Twenty-five percent of the funds raised goes to local hunger-fighting agencies.

Backpack Buddies – The Youth and the Mission Kids sponsor the Backpack Buddies program at Millbrook.  Nutritious, non-perishable food items are collected the second Sunday of the month during the school year.  On the weekends, qualifying Wake County school children take home backpacks filled with donated food items.

Interfaith Food Shuttle – The Inter-Faith Food Shuttle, in the belief that hunger is unacceptable, alleviates hunger by developing systems to recover, prepare, and distribute wholesome, perishable food. Much food is discarded by restaurants and grocery stores because “breakfast was over” or as it nears its expiration date. The Inter-Faith Food Shuttle rescues this food and distributes it to the area’s poor, hungry, undernourished and homeless.

Meal on Wheels – provides nutritious meals to the homebound elderly and persons with disabilities in Wake County in an effort to improve health, reduce isolation, and prevent inappropriate institutionalization. Serving close to 1,500 meals daily to homes and nutrition centers, Meals on Wheels provides the frailest of our community’s citizens with a voice to achieve healthful independence.

Shepherd’s Table Food Kitchen – Located in downtown Raleigh at the Church of the Good Shepherd, the Shepherd’s Table Food Kitchen provides mid-day meals, serving a nourishing hot mid-day meal to anyone who walks through their doors - no questions asked.  Every person who comes to them is welcomed without regard to employment status, race, sex, age, color, national origin, religious preference, handicap or income.
