Tar Heel State Lights who are lighting our way — join us every WE CARE DAY, monthly on the 25th. One day and one act of kindness shared among all of us — of all faiths and no faith. Do it because kindness feels good — and service to others increases your gratitude to God. It is a good thing.
These organizations are quietly doing the work of Matthew 25:40 in North Carolina — feeding the hungry, sheltering the stranger, lifting the fallen — and the important work of assisting those oppressed by life. It is a beautiful thing, responding to those in need as we are all commanded. They serve their neighbors. These are not just examples to follow — they would welcome your time and support of their mission.
North Carolina — Lights shining across the Tar Heel State
385 Hazel Mill Rd. When Hurricane Helene hit — ground zero in Asheville — this church kept serving. The Provision food ministry didn't stop. That's the fruit.
Their own backyard was hit by Helene. They rebuilt homes. They built new ones from the ground up. They stayed.
The Triangle's anchor Islamic center. Community food distributions, refugee assistance, zakat programs. Serving the Research Triangle quietly, consistently, for decades.
A faith-rooted community org that became a Helene distribution hub. Volunteer base. Neighbor serving neighbor at the moment of greatest need.
500+ Helene home repairs completed alongside Habitat for Humanity. Disaster recovery work. No CN/NAR signals. Just boots on the ground.
Counseling, food assistance, refugee resettlement, elder care — for anyone in need. Tikkun olam in the Queen City. Charlotte's Jewish community serving their whole city for generations.
Pulls dogs from kill lists in the Triangle. Foster-based, volunteer-run. Every animal gets a second chance.
Confirmed food pantry on the website. Coastal NC community. Quiet, steady, faithful.
Weekly langar and regional Sewa Diwali food drives, donating thousands of pounds to local pantries. Every guest welcome. Every meal free.
Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist and Christian communities working together on hunger and poverty across NC. The unity of cause TKM is built on — already alive in the Carolinas.
The 25th of every month is WE CARE DAY.
One day and one act of kindness shared among all of us — of all faiths and no faith. Do it because kindness feels good — and service to others increases your gratitude to God. It is a good thing.
Share your WE CARE DAY story — the one that made you feel good about doing it. Every little kindness helps. A compliment goes a long way. Jesus says don't tell anyone of your kindness, but we need your example so you only get to use your last name initial so you don't have to compromise your faith. Tell us — what made you feel good helping someone? Your story lights the way for others.
