About PORCH
Chatham
PORCH Chatham is an an all-volunteer hunger relief organization that connects neighbors to fight local hunger. Through monthly neighborhood food drive, we collect food and cash donations to help keep pantry shelves stocked year-round — providing consistent support for individuals and families facing food insecurity in our community.
Our numerous communities support CORA (Chatham Outreach Alliance), a nonprofit that serves residents facing food insecurity. CORA provides access to nutritious food through its choice food pantry, Mobile Markets, and specialized programs like SNACK! and CORApacks, which focus on meeting the needs of children. CORA envisions a healthy, strong, and connected community where all people have equitable access to abundant, safe, nutritious, and culturally relevant food.
Each PORCH is part of PORCH Communities, a national movement empowering neighbors to fight hunger through local action.
