Feeding Our Most Vulnerable Neighbors
I want to take a moment to thank you for your generous support in 2020 . Because of you , we were able to provide more than 118 million meals for children , seniors and families in need .
During this difficult year , many of our neighbors were hit especially hard . Hardworking men and women lost their jobs . Some have been hired back but are still recovering from months without a paycheck . And countless others were already struggling before the pandemic began .
That includes our seniors who often live on fixed incomes and battle severe , and costly , medical issues . The North Texas Food Bank works to ensure that these seniors have access to nutritious foods that meet their health needs .
Thanks to the generosity of friends like you , we can be there for everyone who needs us , regardless of age .
In this issue of Around the Table , you ’ ll read stories of the people you ’ ve helped . You ’ ll hear from Sharon , a widow who struggles to make ends meet . You ’ ll also read about Esteban , who suffered a stroke and is unable to work . Because of your support , they won ’ t have to choose between food and other necessities .
Thank you for ensuring that our seniors and other North Texas neighbors receive the help they need in order to have healthy food . . . and hope !
