EMERGENCY HURRICANE RESPONSE

The Houston Food Bank is open with normal business hours. The Houston Food Bank is working hard to provide relief to families and individuals. We are supplying food and other necessities to our partner agencies and to temporary shelters.

We Need Your Help
To keep up with the growing need for food, we must obtain funds to purchase truckloads of urgently needed, high-demand items. We are also in need of volunteers to process and distribute these items.

We also must replenish our supplies quickly to prepare for future disasters and to make sure we have enough food for struggling families here in our community and throughout the year.

Thank you for your compassion in this time of great need.

-------------------
Financial gifts to the Houston Food Bank provide the greatest return. They use volunteer power and partnerships with the food industry to stretch every dollar that you give.

For every dollar the food bank spends, they are able to distribute:

$8 in food
6 pounds of food
Enough to feed a family of four
