It is our vision to have a healthy, hunger-free, housing-stable community.
The coronavirus has threatened this with an unprecedented health and economic crisis.
The Family Recovery Fund will help families in the Western and Southwestern region of Wake County (Apex, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Willow Springs and surrounding rural areas) stabilize after the devastating economic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The COVD-19 pandemic continues to challenge many of our families with food insecurity, financial hardship, and access to essential resources. Our Town Council is passionate about providing hope and relief to our community. We are proud to support WWCM with a $20,000 award to their Family Recovery Fund. This will allow more families to be served. There is nothing we can’t accomplish when we work together.
— Jacques Gilbert, Mayor of Apex
We will work with the county and other partner agencies to ensure that we are coordinating support and strategically deploy these funds to help families recover and maintain stability going forward. The Family Recovery Fund will allow us to broaden our scope of assistance beyond just rental and utility assistance.
We have already raised $50,000 from local municipalities, corporate & private donors. We are hoping to raise a total of $150,000+.
Will you join us in supporting our neighbors and keeping our community strong?
