Our Vision

ACP Project envisions thriving, resilient communities where every individual—regardless of zip

code—has access to nourishment, opportunity, and dignity. We are committed to building

programs that meet the urgent and long-term needs of underserved communities in Southeastern

North Carolina and the DMV region by:

Closing gaps in food insecurity and expanding access to healthy, culturally relevant meals
Strengthening emergency preparedness and disaster relief in rural areas with limited infrastructure
Advancing grassroots rural planning and community economic development
Providing financial literacy education that opens pathways to homeownership and generational wealth
Collaborating with local and county leaders to build sustainable, inclusive neighborhoods

ACP Project is more than a nonprofit—it’s a movement rooted in action. Our members and

volunteers drive change through data-informed strategies and deep community relationships. We

focus on:

Education: Helping disenfranchised populations identify assets, access resources, and co-create solutions
Civic Engagement: Encouraging participation to improve neighborhood life and local decision-making
Collaborations: Building internal and external partnerships to amplify impact
Community Development: Using proven models to create viable, vibrant communities

To empower underserved communities with essential resources that enhance quality of

life—through education, economic development, and community support.

We believe transformation begins with trust. Every workshop, meal, and conversation is a

seed—planted with care, nurtured by collaboration, and grown into lasting change.
