After retiring and moving from Pennsylvania to Nebo, North Carolina in 2006, Bunny and Bob Slough wanted to find a way to meet new people in their community, so they joined a local church. This was right around the time the economy took a turn for the worst, and Bunny began to notice that prices at the grocery store were on the rise and her dollars couldn’t go as far as they used to. Living in a small town with high unemployment, Bunny and Bob knew there must be people in their community who were struggling to feed their families. With the help of volunteers and fellow church members, Bunny and Bob opened the Dysartsville Food Pantry in 2009 to provide free, fresh food families who need it. Since they opened, the Dysartsville Food Pantry has impacted over 700 families and given away over half a million pounds of food.
