Food Pantry - CORA’s pantries are set up like a grocery stores for choice shopping, and community members choose the food that matches their preferences and needs. Mobile Market - We currently distribute food via a drive-through model. Families stay in their cars, and pre-packed groceries are placed in their vehicles. There are assorted options like the Pantry, including local fresh produce, meats, dairy, bakery items, and shelf-stable staples. SNACK! – This program distributes food to more than 1,300 kids who depend upon free or reduced-cost meals at school during the school year but have little or no replacement for this nutrition when school is not in session. provides each participating child with 21 healthy meals each week from mid-June through mid-August. CORApacks – Each student receives food on weekends and during school breaks when school is not in session from September through June. Each child receives a monthly food box from this program, delivered to their home, and contains three meals and two snacks daily for when a child is not in school. Delivery to Older Adults – We deliver food to home-bound older adults in our community. If food is needed beyond the two visits, please come to CORA, and we will assist you. We accept food donations Monday through Friday between 9 am - 3 pm at 40 Camp Drive in Pittsboro.

The Durham Orange Quilter’s Guild Show included a silent auction for these beautiful mini quilts, and the proceeds are being donated to CORA for our children's programs, SNACK! and CORApacks. Every piece was sold, and they raised over $1,700 to help feed local kids. Thank you to the guild, the quilters, and everyone who participated in the silent auction!

CORA Executive Director, Melissa, and Director of Development and Communications, Rebecca, talked with Carolina Public Press about the state of food insecurity and what it means for local families and pantries like CORA.

Surging costs drive demand at food pantries like CORA in Chatham County and across much of NC. Further loss of resources could be devastating.
