PORCH-Durham

MISSION AND MODEL

Our Mission

PORCH-Durham provides supplemental food to Durham children and their families who are facing food insecurity.

Our Model

Established in 2011, PORCH-Durham partners with schools and nonprofit organizations across Durham County to identify families most vulnerable to food insecurity. Through these partnerships, we provide shelf-stable food collected through our monthly community food drives—most of which are organized and supported by neighborhoods throughout Durham.

PORCH Communities

We are part of a broader grassroots movement addressing food insecurity across North Carolina and in fourteen other states. Learn more about the vision of a PORCH in every community below.
