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!
This gathering is an opportunity to connect, reflect, and be part of something larger. Your participation directly supports Manna’s programs that strengthen food access, housing stability, and economic security for
our neighbors in need. We invite you to join us for an evening rooted in community and generosity.
PLEASE RSVP BY - Monday, June 1st
Join US - Fundraising Event!
Manna’s Beyond the Plate, An Evening with Manna is an intimate and inspiring fundraising experience set against the breathtaking backdrop of Destination Ranch, where sweeping mountain vistas and open valleys create a truly unforgettable setting. Just outside of Durango, this summer evening invites you to enjoy exceptional food, craft beverages, live music, and powerful storytelling that brings Manna’s mission to life in a meaningful and personal way.
Guests will experience thoughtfully prepared catering by Farm to Fingers, a full bar, live music, and engaging moments throughout the evening, all set within the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Most importantly, the night will highlight the real stories and lasting impact of Manna’s work across our community.
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.
