“ Helping people believe they matter — that ’ s what this is all about .”
Jennifer sees the power of your generosity for North Texans .
Jennifer , a North Texas Food Bank volunteer , knows firsthand how hard it can be to put food on the table . “ I ’ ve been the person that almost experienced homelessness , and I know what it feels like not to have food ,” she shares . That ’ s why she volunteers with one of our local food pantry partners .
Every week , Jennifer witnesses how your generosity provides a lifeline for children , older adults and families facing hunger . The North Texas Food Bank partners with nearly 500 community organizations to distribute about 400,000 meals per day . Jennifer particularly loves seeing the diverse array of people who are empowered because of your support , saying ,
“ There are so many people who come here — older and younger , single and
married , American-born and immigrant . I just love that this place is here for every single person who needs it .
”
For North Texans facing hunger , the gift of a nourishing meal is about more than food . It provides the stability and hope our neighbors need to build brighter tomorrows . And for Jennifer , the gratitude and renewed sense of dignity she sees in her neighbors is the best reward .
“ It ’ s so wonderful to see the smile on somebody ’ s face . Helping people believe they matter — that ’ s what this is all about .”
Thank you for investing in your neighbors . Your gift brings us one step closer to a hunger-free , healthy North Texas !
