DID YOU KNOW?
One in 4 children live in poverty in Buncombe County, and over half of our students are
on the free and reduced lunch program because their families’ income qualifies them for
assistance.
Last year, the Children First/CIS Family Resource Center at Emma served 713 food
boxes to 203 households and prevented short-term catastrophic financial events through our
food pantry, financial assistance, and clothing pantry.
Children First/CIS is a local nonprofit which provides resources both in the schools, communities
and homes. And we are a strong voice for children & families with local & state policy makers.
