Local Food Banks

If you, or someone you know is in need of a food bank, there are many offered throughout the Durham community. We recommend you contact the agencies as each will have their own operating procedure, hours of operation and eligibility criteria. Food products will vary depending on the food bank as they often rely on donations. Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of any assistance in providing more information.
