IFC's RSVVP campaign is one week away! Eat out in Chapel Hill/Carrboro on November 9th!

IFC's RSVVP (Restaurants Sharing Ten Percent) campaign is only one week away on November 9th! This is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a great dinner out and support IFC plus it's easy! Just mark your calendars for Tuesday, November 9th and plan to eat out at one of the many area restaurants listed on IFC's website as participating in the event. Participating restaurants will donated 10% of their sales that night to IFC which enables IFC to purchase food when food pantry and soup kitchen supplies run low.


You can find a list of participating restaurants and more information about IFC's RSVVP event at IFC's website.

Welcome to March on Poverty

The Inter-Faith Council (IFC) believes that now is the time to stop poverty in its tracks. Many in our community are struggling to hang on; and many need the inspiration of our community leaders to do something about poverty's influence and prominence. We need everyone who cares about reducing poverty's hold over increasing numbers of Carrboro and Chapel Hill households and unsheltered persons. Our new March On Poverty blog summons you to our call and the original call of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the countless among us who have followed in his footsteps. You ask, "how long will this take?" Dr. King said "Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." Poverty is the primary cause of homelessness and hunger, two community challenges IFC volunteers and staff cross swords with daily. A lack of an adequate response by state, federal and local governments enable and procrastinate these conditions. We seek to create a just community, one that is committed to overcoming social problems by a greater commitment to the common good. We hope our blog will bring you more in touch with these issues. We hope you will come to know the facts about IFC future plans, new program models and new facilities commonly called Community House and FoodFirst. We hope you will join us.

Stay tuned! Stay in touch! March On!
