Orange County commissioners unanimously approved a $54,000 emergency budget addition to support local food assistance programs. This move comes as a response to federal threats to low-income residents benefits, leaving many uncertain about their food assistance. The funds will be distributed among key organizations like Interfaith Council for Social Services, Orange Congregations in Mission, PORCH Chapel Hill and Carrboro, and PORCH Hillsborough. Two special food distribution events are also planned for this Saturday.
