Giving Tuesday Campaign Launch
Join Us for Our Upcoming Giving Tuesday Campaign!
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our Giving Tuesday Campaign, starting early next week and continuing through December! This initiative is an opportunity for all of us to come together and make a lasting impact in our beloved town of Weldon, North Carolina.
Help Us Spread the Word!
We invite you to be part of this meaningful campaign. Share our posts on social media or pick up a postcard to distribute throughout the community. The more people who know about our efforts, the more we can accomplish together!
Weldon is more than just a location; it’s a nurturing small town where everyone knows each other. This deep sense of belonging and community spirit inspires us to revitalize Weldon for future generations. With the stunning natural beauty of the Roanoke River and the Canal Trail, our town draws in visitors for fishing, business opportunities, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Your Contribution Matters
Every contribution helps us continue our important projects and make a meaningful difference in our community. We invite you to show your commitment to preserving the spirit of Weldon. Together, we can ensure that our town thrives for generations to come. Thank you for your support!
Our Projects
Here are some of the key initiatives we’re working on:
Ralph J. Bunche Historical Park: A space to honor our town’s history and provide a gathering place for the community.
Weldon Oral History: Capturing the stories and experiences of our residents to preserve the unique heritage of Weldon.
Weldon Heritage Speaker Series: Engaging speakers to share insights and foster community discussion.
Civic Engagement: Encouraging community participation in local governance and initiatives.
Canal Trail and Aqueduct Clean-Up: Preserving the beauty of our natural resources for all to enjoy.
Summer Saturdays in the Park: Bringing the community together for fun events and activities during the summer months.
Lights in the Night Christmas Tree and Stories: A festive celebration that brings joy to families during the holiday season.
Bricks and Sidewalks: Enhancing the town’s infrastructure to create a more inviting environment.
Hospitality: Welcoming newcomers and visitors with open arms.
Support for these projects comes from generous donors and sponsors, supplemented by income from our souvenir social enterprise, All Things Weldon. We rely heavily on individual contributions, along with grants, to fund our general operations and most projects.
Our largest initiatives, including the Ralph J. Bunche Historical Park and our Oral History program, are currently seeking grants to enhance their impact. These grants often require matching funds, which we aim to provide through our general fund and individual gifts. Every gift, no matter the size, makes a significant difference in what we can achieve for Weldon.
