Food for Families

Food For Families is a cooperative effort between the North Texas Food Bank and more than 25 member agencies.

Clients of the cooperating agencies have been pre-qualified and bring an agency issued voucher for specific food distribution. Clients meet agency volunteers at a specific parking lot at a specific time. A drive-through line is organized and agency volunteers distribute food directly to clients from Food Bank trucks.

During fiscal year 2008, over 1,344,000 pounds of food was distributed to 15,502 families and over 67,127 individuals. The Food For Families distributions take place at eight different locations every Friday and two Thursdays each month.
