🍎 20 Years. One Night. A Decade in the Making.

Food for Thought is celebrating 20 years of serving Dare County students — and we only host this kind of anniversary event once every 10 years. This Gala isn’t just a milestone; it’s one of FFT’s most important fundraisers, helping us provide weekend meal bags, clothing, shoes, hygiene products, and other essentials for local children.

We’re counting on a strong community turnout to keep this mission going strong.

🎟️ Grab your tickets, sponsor a table, or make a donation today.
Every dollar stays right here in Dare County, supporting students who need us most.

Let’s make the next decade of FFT possible.

Join us for an unforgettable evening as we celebrate 20 years of Food for Thought and the incredible community that has helped nourish thousands of local children.
