Friends' primary goals:
- Conducting community outreach, sharing Carolina Cares' vision in person and on social media
- Fundraising within their own networks among their friends, neighbors, family, and coworkers
- Collecting food, hygiene, toys, and school supply donations throughout the year
- Building relationships with small businesses and other not-for-profit organizations
- Hosting personal small fundraising parties and food, school supplies, coat, or toy drives

A typical goal for a Friend may be collecting donations from a grocery store, or speaking to a business owner about sponsoring an event or donating goods. While Friends do not enter into contracts on behalf of Carolina Cares, they play a crucial role in increasing our outreach in the community.
