About BRUNSWICK FAMILY ASSISTANCE
BFA is a private non-profit 501(3)(c) organization offering several programs to low-income families in Brunswick County, North Carolina.  

Now in our 30th year of operation, our major funders include Brunswick County, Brunswick Electric, United Way of the Cape Fear Area, Cape Fear Memorial Foundation, the National Emergency Food and Shelter Program, NC Department of Agriculture, HUD, and individual donations.  

BFA provides emergency assistance and other programs to qualified low-income families and individuals as a result of donated money, food, and clothing, and by the countless hours of work donated by our volunteers.  
Those who can, do.
Those who can do more, volunteer.
