Fresh Food for Families Even with a steady income, the cost of living in Central Texas makes it difficult for some families to pay bills, clothe their children, and purchase nutritious food. For older adults, low-income families and those living on fixed or limited incomes, Fresh Food for Families provides a nutritious, economic lifeline. The program provides families with quality fruits, vegetables and other perishables free of charge, on a regular basis.

“Wheels of Sharing” Mobile Food Pantry The “Wheels of Sharing” Mobile Food Pantry program is one of the Food Bank’s most effective ways of addressing hunger and food insecurity. Operating out of custom-built, refrigerated vehicles, the program fills geographic and service gaps in emergency food assistance by distributing basic staples, produce, and frozen items, as well as providing SNAP (Food Stamp) application assistance directly to those at risk of hunger in Central Texas communities. Thank you, Mobile Food Pantry sponsors: Charles H. Phipps Family Foundation Feeding America and the Kresge Foundation The Garber Family Foundation
Central Texas Food Rescue Quality fruits, vegetables, and protein are essential to a balanced diet, and are also expensive and difficult for food assistance programs to acquire.

Thank you, Central Texas Food Rescue sponsors: James R. Dougherty Jr. Foundation Inc. Rachael and Ben Vaughan Foundation
