Volunteer with Durham Food Pantries
For those who would like to volunteer to distribute food, contact the Triangle Leadership and Volunteer Center, which handles the requests for volunteers from the food pantries.
Support our Emergency Food System
We know that SNAP provides 9 meals for every 1 meal provided by a food bank/food pantry. This means that our already strained emergency food providers need extra help to support our community. You can support them by donating money or food and/or by volunteering.
- The Food Bank of Eastern & Central NC supports many of our food pantries and is a great place to offer your help. Here is the FBECNC donation link and more FBECNC giving and volunteer information
- Interfaith Food Shuttle and PORCH Durham also provide food to local pantries including school pantries. You can support them by donating money or food and/or by volunteering.
- Meals On Wheels provides food to homebound adults and seniors. Please support them as their need is increasing as well.
- Support your neighborhood food pantry or organization. Reach out to your local food pantries, the Durham Community Fridges, mutual aid groups, and other organizations to ask how you can help. Monetary donations are always needed. Please ask what is needed before donating food.
