Mission Statement: To bring awareness of food insecurities as they exist among our most vulnerable populations, to gift it forward by honoring Mama Edna’s legacy of feeding those who are hungry and to lift folks out of these insecurities by helping them thrive in all aspects of their lives to include helping them grow their own food when possible.
This list will be tweaked a few more times as we discover what is right for our space, location, shoppers and our mission. Thanks for your patience. We will make an announcement soon once we begin taking donations. Please hang tight. 🦋💙🦋💙🦋💙🦋💙🦋💙
But it is taking longer than expected. Meanwhile, please keep looking for updates here or on our Facebook and IG pages. Thanks for for support! 🦋💙🦋💙🦋💙🦋💙.
If you are interested in volunteering with us, please email Drew at themamaednaproject@gmail.com and let’s get ready for some fun!
Here is the newest donations guidelines: these are a work in progress until we can determine whether the space we are leasing will contain it all. Once we get a store stocking approval, we will make an announcement about bringing donations.

In mid July, several donors asked us if we could help in some way fight food insecurity during this pandemic. We went to work researching the best approach. We decided to donate $1500 to the Dorcas Ministries Food Pantry here in Cary, North Carolina, primarily because Mama Edna loved to shop at Dorcas Thrift shop to support their mission. Paying it forward was a huge part of her life, so we paid it forward. #dorcas #growyourown #foodinsecurity
