Nourish Your Neighbors This Fall
It ’ s heartbreaking to know that Texas now has the highest number of people facing food insecurity in the nation with nearly 5 million people facing hunger . And nearly 778,000 of those individuals are right here in our own community .
In the face of economic uncertainty and food insecurity , your compassion provides a crucial lifeline . Thank you for ensuring that every neighbor in North Texas has access to the healthy food they need to thrive .
I ’ m so excited for you to meet Maria , Derwin and Jennifer in this issue of Around the Table . Their stories illustrate the amazing impact of your generosity to transform lives , strengthen families and empower our neighbors with dignity and hope .
This fall , thousands of people will turn to the North Texas Food Bank , and with your help , we will be ready to answer the call . Your partnership provides more than a meal . It ’ s an investment in a brighter tomorrow for all North Texans .
Thank you for nurturing a hunger-free , healthy North Texas , one meal at a time !
