When World Central Kitchen was in search of fresh protein for the meals they were cooking for the people of Western North Carolina, House of Raeford Farms stepped up with 25,000 lbs. of poultry delivered straight from their South Carolina facility to Asheville. In less than 24 hrs., they fulfilled a critical need to get nourishment to those who needed it most.

Thank you, House of Raeford!
