As Copiers Plus and Kyocera celebrate 40 Years of Caring, we are proud to highlight and support organizations making a meaningful difference in our communities. One of this month’s featured recipients is CrossPointe Church, a dynamic, community-focused church in Fayetteville, NC, that is helping individuals and families grow in their faith.
CrossPointe Church exists to help people discover, develop, and do life with Jesus. Their mission comes to life through weekly services, vibrant youth programs, and their commitment to loving God and people. Every week, they minister to adults, kids, and teens, while also partnering with impactful local non-profits like Spike Ministries, Operation InAsMuch, Agape Pregnancy Center, and Jack Britt Table Top—a new initiative to show appreciation to local teachers.
CrossPointe’s youth ministry is a cornerstone of their outreach. A story shared by Joshua Carter, Lead Pastor at CrossPointe Church, perfectly captures the heart of their work:
“About three years ago, a middle school student at CrossPointe made some poor choices that affected others. Instead of turning him away, the pastoral team met with him and shared truth with compassion. That student kept showing up, eventually gave his life to Jesus, and was baptized. Today, he’s a student leader, helping younger students feel welcome and seen. He’s not just participating—he’s making a difference.”
This summer, CrossPointe's youth group will attend the Forward Conference in Duluth, GA—a transformative experience filled with worship, teaching, and community building. However, two teenagers from a family that is caring and reliable, and who regularly volunteer their time to serve the church, were unable to afford the cost.
The $500 donation from Copiers Plus and Kyocera will cover both of their full expenses, ensuring they can attend and grow in their faith alongside their peers. One of the students is even a student leader who helps welcome and encourage others every week.
“We are so grateful for the generosity of Copiers Plus,” Carter shared. “This will make a youth trip possible for students this summer. It will be an impactful week made possible by God, of course, and by this generosity.”
If you’re looking for a welcoming, Christ-centered community, CrossPointe invites you to join them:
Sundays at 9:00 AM or 11:15 AM
7030 Rockfish Road

Youth Services: Wednesdays at 6:30 PM (Grades 6–12)

Our Story
Bladen County Public Library is more than just a place to check out books—it's a vital hub for learning, creativity, and connection. With branches in Elizabethtown, Clarkton, and Bladenboro, the library offers Bladen County residents free access to books, digital resources, and internet services, helping to bridge the gap for those without access to these tools at home.
Copiers Plus and Kyocera recognize the importance of this work and are thrilled for the opportunity to support the Bladen County Public Library through our 40 Years of Caring: Sharing the Love Across NC campaign!
From early literacy programs for children to skill-building workshops for adults, the library serves people of all ages. It’s also a welcoming gathering space, hosting community events, workshops, and clubs that foster learning and togetherness.
In the words of nominator and life-long visitor Sandy Bridgers, “It’s a wonderful place with great staff, and they deserve all the help they can get. Over the past couple of years, they’ve made incredible efforts to improve their building and create programs for the public to enjoy. They always strive to do even more for the community. If I could, I would give them a million dollars.”
Bladen County Public Library offers a wide range of enriching events and activities, including:
Their recent initiative—collecting Valentine’s cards and stuffed animals for nursing home residents—was a beautiful example of how the library sparks kindness and connection beyond its walls.
Looking for a fun activity for the kids this summer? The library’s Summer Reading Program runs June 16–July 17 for ages 0–12. Parents can sign up by calling or visiting the library in person. It’s a fantastic way to keep kids engaged and inspired over the summer months!
The library uses donations to fund a number of things, including:
According to Bladen County Public Library’s Director, Sheila Nance, the $500 they’ll receive through our 40 Years of Caring campaign has an extra special purpose:
“We are humbled and thrilled to have been nominated and selected for this generous award. Our staff is passionate about sharing our love of reading with patrons of all ages, and we look forward to adding to our children’s book collection with this thoughtful donation.”
Every dollar helps create opportunities for learning, connection, and joy in the community.
The best way to support the library, says Nance, is to take advantage of their services. You might check out a book, use the computers, attend a program, or simply settle into a quiet corner to read, study, or get work done.

Our Story
Located in Hampstead, Share the Table stands out as a beacon of community care and support for individuals throughout eastern North Carolina. The organization provides food and fellowship to over 1,500 people in Pender and Onslow Counties each week through a no-barriers, client-choice food pantry, a weekend backpack program for school children, and free weekly community meals. Their drive and compassion made them a perfect fit for our 40 Years of Caring campaign, and we are honored to donate $500 to help them continue carrying out their mission!
Unlike traditional food pantries, Share the Table operates with a client-choice model. That means individuals and families can select the food that best suits their dietary needs and preferences — preserving dignity and minimizing waste. Alongside non-perishable goods, the pantry prioritizes healthy options like fresh produce, meats, and dairy products.
Their major initiatives include:
These programs are more than services — they are lifelines, and they create opportunities for connection, support, and hope.
The numbers speak volumes. In just one year, Share the Table saw a 31% increase in people served, distributing over 620,000 pounds of food — the equivalent of 522,000 meals. Volunteers, over 100 strong each week, not only distribute food but also build relationships with those they serve, offering a friendly face and a listening ear.
Board member, volunteer, and nominator Carla Citarelli shared a recent experience:
“I had the pleasure of serving a Sunday meal. It was very inspiring to see how grateful the people are for this service. The organization is welcoming to everyone in need.”
Pat Fontana, a North Topsail Beach business owner who also nominated Share the Table for recognition, put it best:
“The staff and volunteers at Share the Table are truly dedicated to helping their neighbors. There are no barriers for an individual seeking supplemental food, household items, or information about living a healthier life."
The emotional impact is just as powerful. One of the organization’s neighbors described the experience, saying, “I don’t feel that safe in the world until I come to Share the Table. I don’t have to prove myself and I feel genuinely welcome. I calm down when I am here — a place to be a part of — and I am deeply grateful.”
With food prices continuing to rise — especially for fresh meats, fruits, and dairy — supporting Share the Table’s mission has never been more important. Copiers Plus and Kyocera’s $500 donation will directly fund the purchase of healthy, fresh food to stock the shelves of this designated Healthy Food Pantry.
And for some, that makes all the difference. “Share the Table has helped my family tremendously in a time of need,” explained one recipient. “The Sunday meals, as well as the grocery shopping, help us get through the week. The volunteers are so kind and helpful.”
Want to make a difference? Here’s how:
Share the Table is proving that with care, community, and a little help from generous supporters, no one has to go hungry.

Our Story
One of the 40 organizations selected to receive $500 as part of our 40 Years of Caring: Sharing the Love Across NC initiative, Honor Flight of the Cape Fear Area (HFCFA) works tirelessly to ensure that our nation’s heroes receive the recognition they so deeply deserve. A volunteer-run 501(c)(3) non-profit located in Wilmington, NC, HFCFA provides World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam War veterans with all-expenses-paid trips to Washington, D.C. These powerful one-day journeys allow veterans to visit the memorials built in their honor, while also educating the public on the sacrifices of those who have served our country.
Since its founding in 2020, HFCFA has flown more than 200 veterans to the nation’s capital—and the mission continues to grow. The next Honor Flight is scheduled for April 26, 2025, and will be the organization’s largest yet, honoring 85 veterans aboard a specially chartered aircraft.
The organization’s programming extends far beyond the flight itself. Each Honor Flight includes “Operation Mail Call,” a moving moment in which veterans receive hundreds of heartfelt letters from grateful citizens. And when they return home, the community comes together in a jubilant Welcome Home Celebration at Wilmington International Airport—a moment of joy, pride, and deep appreciation.
As Honor Flight of the Cape Fear Area’s Founder and President, Ruth Smith has seen the impact of the organization’s work firsthand. She suggests that those effects are best felt by watching the veterans themselves. The organization's website photo and video gallery offers a glimpse into the powerful and emotional experiences shared on these flights.
The $500 donation Honor Flight of the Cape Fear Area will receive as one of our 40 Years of Caring campaign winners will directly support these life-changing trips. It helps cover key costs including leasing the aircraft, chartering buses in D.C., and feeding and clothing veterans for the day. Every dollar brings a veteran closer to this meaningful experience.
Want to support HFCFA’s mission too? Here are a few ways you can get involved:
