DURHAM, N.C. — Back in 2016, thousands of people gathered on Fayetteville Street in downtown Raleigh to help raise money for victims of Hurricane Matthew.

The turnout was shocking, as hundreds of people lined the streets for the inaugural Sunday Supper.

Now, fast forward two years, and the movement has spread to other communities like Durham, where their hope is to come together around the table to continue providing unity and hunger relief.

Spectrum News anchor Caroline Blair sat down with Lisa Perkins, Executive Director of Catholic Charities, and James Glenn, organizer of Sunday Supper Durham.  The pair described just how important this event is for the Bull City, and just how quickly they plan on putting the money raised to good use.

A study recently found that Durham faces a million pound shortage or food meant to serve the food insecure population, which is why Mayor Steve Schewel presented the proclamation, honoring April 29 as Sunday Supper Durham Day.
