The Cashier’s Office is proud to participate in the 2024 Interfaith Food Drive supporting the Food Bank of Central & Eastern NC, organized by the Light House Project of Cary, NC.
The Light House Project is a local nonprofit organization that was established in response to a brutal hate crime that took the lives of NC State students Deah Barakat, Yusor Abu-Salha and Razan Abu-Salha, on February 10, 2015. According to their website, the Light House Project hopes to empower Muslim Americans in the Triangle by “providing a source of light for young Muslims and the community at large.”
