FeedNC's Winter Wonderland: A Celebration of Giving and Community
The magic of Christmas goes far beyond the gifts under the tree; it’s a feeling that sparks hope and spreads joy. It’s about connection, small moments of wonder, and the comfort of knowing someone cares.
That’s what makes FeedNC’s Winter Wonderland so special.
Now in its fifth year, this generous event ensures that families served by FeedNC can celebrate with dignity, surrounded by holiday magic, delicious food, and the generosity of local businesses, organizations like the National Charity League, and neighbors - like you!
On December 21, Winter Wonderland will welcome over 350 children to a day filled with festive fun. From writing letters to Santa and enjoying hot cocoa to face painting and picking out special toys, this event is designed to bring joy and foster a sense of wonder for children and their families. The magic culminates in “Toyland,” where kids select gifts not just for themselves but for their loved ones - reinforcing the spirit of giving.
And you can help make this day special!
- Live in North Mecklenburg? You can drop off a new and unwrapped toy at FeedNC in Mooresville between now and December 18.
- Give Financially: Your donations support FeedNC’s mission and places funds where they’re needed most. The impact of financial support means over 6000 neighbors, including 1500 children, are wrapped in warmth and dignity this holiday season!
- Shop the Amazon Wish List: Provide toys and essentials to brighten a child’s holiday.
- Make a Gift in Honor or Memory of Someone Special
Each act of generosity will make an impact this season - showing families they are valued and loved. As one FeedNC member said: “FeedNC has been a big blessing for food when there was a shortage and only getting to eat three or four times a week and at Christmas when they supported my child. I can’t express enough how overwhelmed I am. Meeting staff and they know you by name, I love it. It lets me know that they are getting to know me, and I know them. When I enter the building, I am always greeted with a smile.”
As we celebrate this season of giving, initiatives like Winter Wonderland remind us of the lasting impact that small acts of kindness can have on someone’s life. Together, we can spark hope, spread joy, and celebrate the true spirit of the season.
