PORCH Raleigh
Our Mission
PORCH Raleigh provides nourishment and resources for food insecure families in Wake County through monthly neighborhood food drives. We collect non-perishable food donations from the porches of Raleigh residents, distributing them to multiple hunger relief partners including school food pantries and community pantries. Additionally, we provide fresh food and grocery gift cards to local families seeking food assistance for healthy and relevant choices for their nutritional needs.
