Donations are needed now. The North Wilkesboro Christmas Cheer Project, sponsored by the Town is underway. Names of elderly and needy families who live in the North Wilkesboro city limits are collected in the Clerk’s Office and reviewed to determine eligibility. Contributions are received from businesses and individuals.  320 boxes will be assembled by Town staff and delivered on Friday, December 21st.  Recipients must be at home in order to receive a food box as the food boxes contain perishable items. The total cost of the project is $8,500. Donations can be mailed in or dropped off at North Wilkesboro Town Hall.  (North Wilkesboro Christmas Cheer Fund, PO Box 218, North Wilkesboro, NC  28659)
