“ The food pantry welcomes you with open arms.”
You’ re feeding neighbors who struggle to make ends meet
Fonda prides herself on being a hard worker. That’ s why it was so heartbreaking when she injured her back due to spinal arthritis and could only work a few hours each day.
With such a drastic cut to her paycheck, it wasn’ t long until Fonda no longer had enough money for groceries.
Thankfully, Fonda learned about a food pantry run by one of our Partner Agencies. There, she’ s able to receive protein, dairy and vegetables.
“ Since I’ m just getting food for myself, I can make the food stretch,” Fonda says.“ I don’ t go every week if I don’ t need to so there can be enough food for others who need it.”
Even before the pandemic began, the pantry has been a lifesaver. And now it’ s more vital than ever.
When you give to the North Texas Food Bank, you make sure neighbors like Fonda get the healthy food they need.
“ They give out so much food. I don’ t know what I would do without them,” Fonda says.
So many people like Fonda across North Texas are eager to work but are unable to due to illness, injury or layoffs from the pandemic. They struggle to make ends meet and are grateful for the support you provide.
“ I don’ t like to ask for help,” Fonda says,“ but I needed it. And the food pantry welcomes you with open arms.”
“ When you donate, you are helping people who can’ t help themselves right now,” Fonda continues.“ If I had extra money, I would donate!”
Your generosity ensures that neighbors like Fonda stay fed. Thank you!
