Yay!DAY Sponsors - Ed & Missy Babcock - Tacos 4 Life
Ed & Missy Babcock never thought their higher calling would come by way of tacos. But coming out of retirement to run the Mooresville, North Carolina location of Tacos 4 Life has been a perfect fit and a wonderfully delicious way for them to give back both locally, and globally.
The concept is simple - with every food item purchased at Tacos 4 Life, you’re also paying the cost of a single meal for children facing starvation worldwide. Just 29 cents - it’s enough to buy a nutritious meal that will save the life of a child and help them thrive.
This meal donation program is facilitated through a partnership with Feed My Starving Children, a nonprofit organization empowering volunteers to pack meals for the malnourished in nearly 70 countries. Through packing events, volunteers can become active participants in assembling the life saving food packs, all paid for one taco at a time. Through their Mooresville location, the Babcock’s and Tacos 4 Life have purchased over 190,000 meals as of April 6, 2025!
Supporting students in the Lake Norman community
Recognizing that their core values align with that of The Yay!DAY Foundation, the Babcocks and Tacos 4 Life Mooresville generously donated to our scholarship fund, to directly benefit students in the LKN area. Our scholarship fund helps local youth attend college, trade school, or pursue continuing education programs. Yay!DAY will continue to partner with Ed & Missy to achieve our goal of spreading positivity in the local community. We encourage you to visit their Mooresville location and support this business that gives so much!
