🚨 NEW MISSION ALERT: Fill the pot for Feed-Well!

➡️ We're so excited to announce a new missional partnership with @feed_well_fridges, a new local nonprofit founded by the renowned chef and co-owner of @rootcellarchapelhill, Sera Cuni. Feed-Well Fridges are vital in addressing hunger in our community, where 1 in 6 people is food insecure.

🥕 Each Sunday morning, we'll have a Feed-Well pot in the welcome area, and you're invited to bring any extra produce or other food items and place them in the pot. Sera will then transform these donations into meals that will make a real difference in the lives of our community members.

🫶 By participating in this partnership, we are not only helping eliminate hunger but also contributing to a more sustainable and compassionate community. Join us in making a difference with Feed-Well Fridges!

In Speech and Debate, we often start class with “exposure activities” because the more we practice what feels uncomfortable or scary, the less power it holds. This week, we focused on controlling nervous movement and utilizing positive body language. #WeAreSeaforth #OneChatham

SILER CITY, N.C. — Denise Partin, treasurer of JMArts since its creation more than a decade ago, has been named the 2023 JMArts Community Hero.

Given this year for the fourth time, the annual award was created to honor a volunteer from the community who has contributed significantly to the success of the arts at Jordan-Matthews High School.

JMArts President Rose Pate said Partin began volunteering as a parent when her two sons were band students and then continued her service, playing an essential role in the organization’s success.

“I’m completely honored and blown away,” Partin said when receiving the award. “I enjoy helping and it doesn’t seem like a chore.”
