Our Rapid Food Distribution Program provides food directly from our pantry to hungry families, making a significant and positive impact throughout the North Texas community. We serve individuals, families, seniors, veterans, working families facing financial hardship, people experiencing homelessness, and those who are newly unemployed.
Many newly unemployed individuals contact us apologetically, asking what they need to do to receive food assistance. We gently remind them that they have likely supported charitable organizations such as the American Red Cross, United Way, and many others over the years. Their past generosity helped build a stronger community, and now that same community is here to support them during their time of need. Our process is fast, simple, and dignified.
As an Independent Food Bank, we also provide free surplus food to 32 partner food pantries, enabling them to stretch their budgets and serve more families in need.
At Community Food Bank, we recognize that hunger and poverty are often accompanied by other challenges. That is why we proudly support community programs and organizations, including:
Several of these programs provide participants with paid training and work experience opportunities while they volunteer at Community Food Bank.
In addition to food assistance, we offer community referral services through Cornerstone Assistance Network, provide community news and nutritional education resources, and make computers available for clients who need assistance obtaining their Food Handler License.
Together, we are helping individuals and families move toward greater stability, self-sufficiency, and hope!
Growing Need, Greater Impact
We are experiencing a significant increase in the number of families turning to us for help. At the same time, news reports indicate that food banks across the country may lose access to approximately $500 million in federal food assistance, placing additional strain on hunger-relief organizations.
As an independent, grassroots food bank, Community Food Bank has never relied on federal funding or USDA food programs. We operate through the generosity of our community, local businesses, charitable organizations, and individual donors. With increasing competition for food resources and a growing demand for services, now is the time we need your support most.
Funds raised through North Texas Giving Day will be used to help Community Food Bank purchase and distribute nutritious food to hungry children, families, seniors, veterans, and individuals throughout our community. Your generosity will help ensure that no one has to face hunger alone and that our neighbors in need continue to have access to healthy, nourishing meals.
Every donation makes a difference. Together, we can provide hope, dignity, and food for our neighbors when they need it most.
