¡bienvenido!

Servimos a la comunidad de San Diego con alimentos saludables, educación sobre sostenibilidad, educación financiera y más.

Porchlight Community has been serving San Diego with dignity since 2016

We are a grassroots community of volunteers dedicated to rescuing food and redistributing it to our neighbors. Our journey began in 2016 when a single parent, supported by like-minded neighbors, sought to create a dignified experience for those seeking assistance.

From our humble beginnings on porches and driveways to our small office in Kearny Mesa, we’ve evolved into a dual food rescue and food pantry program. Our market-style shopping experience and food baskets ensure that everyone can access the nourishment they deserve.
