Our Story
Manna has operated in Durango, Colorado since 1985. Our organization was originally founded to address hunger through the distribution of food and the eventual founding of our soup kitchen. Since then, our mission and model have grown to provide nutritious food and meals, supportive services, and employment readiness, addressing the root causes of poverty in our community.
Join us in celebrating 40 Years!
We are working to address housing insecurity in La Plata County
Manna is proud to announce the expansion of its efforts to address housing insecurity in La Plata County through a new initiative focused on transitional support and stable housing that is safe, affordable, and accessible for those who may otherwise have barriers to housing stability.
We aim to increase food security in our community.
We serve hot and cold meals through our take-out window and community fridge. Our food market offers produce, meat, canned and dried goods, and other items that are provided through community donations.
