Our 1st Annual Manna | Durango Community Resource Culinary Alumni Gathering was a huge success, bringing past graduates back together for great food, connection, laughter, and a chance to celebrate how far they’ve come.

Megan was thrilled to welcome everyone back and prepared an amazing BBQ dinner for the group to enjoy. As our Culinary Program continues to grow, we’re excited to keep our graduates connected to Manna and continue following their stories, careers, and journeys. Graduation isn’t the end of their Manna story. It’s the beginning of the next chapter.

Congratulations to Toon, who walked away with a great door prize! And if you want to represent Manna Culinary yourself, check out our Culinary swag:

Community is stronger when we work together!

Manna | Durango Community Resource is excited to be joining an incredible group of local organizations today at Pond Farm for Cultivating Community Health in the Four Corners.

This morning’s gathering brings together 45 people representing 23 local organizations for a morning of networking, wellness, resource sharing, and building stronger connections across our region.

Events like this matter. When organizations come together, share resources, build relationships, and learn from one another, we strengthen our ability to support the people who call Southwest Colorado home.

We’re grateful to have a seat at the table and an opportunity to share Manna’s resources while learning more about the amazing work happening throughout the Four Corners.

Together, we can make a massive difference in the health and strength of our community.

Cricket is one of our Manna program participants and an avid music lover who brings plenty of personality and joy to our campus.

We love sharing moments like these because Manna is about more than services. It's about people, connection, and community. Enjoy these great photos by Faces of Durango, and if you see Cricket around Manna Durango, make sure to say hello and ask him about music! 🎶✨
