Since 1964, Christian Appalachian Project (CAP) has served the people of Appalachia by building hope, transforming lives, and sharing Christ’s love.

By working with other local food banks and humanitarian service providers, their reach extends to parts of all 13 states of the Appalachian region, including Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia, Maryland, Mississippi, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.
