Donate a meal
2025 Meal Donation Registration Now Open!
Every meal, every smile, every hour a volunteer spends at PorchLight helps build a stronger Eastside community grounded in compassion and respect.
We serve lunch at 12PM and dinner at 6PM daily.
We serve three meals a day, 365 days a year, to approximately 100 men experiencing homelessness in our community. We welcome volunteers willing to donate meals for our shelter guests.
When you deliver your meal, you will be asked when and where it was prepared. It would be ideal if you could label your meal donations with the name of the food and the date it was prepared – these are Health Department required details.
Our main goal is to make it convenient and easy for you to continue supporting PorchLight with your meal donations. Please download this 1-2-3 Guide to help you through the process and get started.
PorchLight provides plates, napkins, and utensils. Extras, such as fruit, salad, beverages, and desserts, are more than welcome but not required.
All food donations must be scheduled prior to drop off.

You MUST reserve a date and meal preference (lunch or dinner); and, if possible provide the full menu.
PLEASE NOTE: If the meal must be warmed you will need to arrive by 11 am for lunch and 5 pm for dinner.
