Open 365 days a year, our Kitchen at Durham Outlook is the Durham Region’s only full-service, barrier-free soup kitchen. With the leadership of more than 500 volunteers each month, Durham Outlook serves between 150 to 250 meals per day, which is approximately 55,000 to 65,000 meals per year.
Through partnerships with other non-profit organizations and local churches, meal tickets, which are valued at $1.50 per ticket, are distributed free-of-charge to individuals and families experiencing poverty and food insecurity. Those who are unable to access free meal tickets are served regardless; no one is ever turned away.
