Today 1 in 6 Texans face food insecurity! The out of control increase in food costs are placing unprecedented pressures on even working families, let alone senior citizens who are living on a fixed income. Midwest Food Bank Texas is working diligently to address these growing needs.
Since our opening in 2018, Midwest Food Bank Texas has grown to serve over 105 nonprofit partner agencies in over 40 counties and two border states (Oklahoma and Louisiana). Through these partners agencies, we serve more than 124,000 food insecure individuals a month, of which the majority are senior citizens, children, single parent families and veterans. In addition to fighting food insecurity, we also provide emergency disaster relief food and clean up resources to communities impacted.
We operate on a volunteer run model giving us the ability to maintain a 99.4% program efficiency. For every $1 donated, we are able to rescue $30 worth of food. Please consider making a donation to help fight hunger in Texas and bordering states.
