PORCH Raleigh
Our Mission
PORCH Raleigh provides supplemental food donations for community and school pantries in Raleigh through monthly neighborhood food drives. We collect non-perishable food donations from the porches of Raleigh residents. Additionally, we distribute fresh food and grocery gift cards when available to local food pantries, providing healthy and relevant choices for the nutritional needs of recipients.
