HOST A FOOD DRIVE

The Durham Branch of the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina serves 6 counties including Chatham, Durham, Granville, Orange, Person, and Vance. In these counties, more than 106,000 people live in food insecure households, nearly a third of whom are children.

Last year we distributed more than 9.1 million pounds of food (a branch record!) to our network of 211 partner agencies in the local community. Our volunteers at the branch served over 25,000 hours, the equivalent to approximately 12 full-time employees. To learn more, view our Durham Branch Profile. 

For every dollar donated, we can provide 5 meals to the Bull City community! Get involved today by making a donation, signing up to volunteer, or hosting a food drive!
