Off-Road Outreach, a veteran-centered nonprofit dedicated to providing crucial resources to military veterans, is honored to announce its partnership with the 2025 Fayetteville Dogwood Festival's returning Cork & Fork event. The event will take place on Thursday, April 24, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Volta Space inside Taste of West Africa, offering an evening of local flavors, artistry, and community support, with proceeds from a silent auction directly benefiting Off-Road Outreach.

Every bid will be benefitting Off-Road Outreach’s Veggies for Vets Greenhouse at Myrover Reese Fellowship Homes.
