Lil' Food Bankers are back! ☀️
Kids in North Texas may be headed back to school, but the issue of child hunger is still very much in our community.
By educating our youth on the issue of food insecurity, we are nurturing future hunger fighters, and The Mom Game's Emily Jones' daughter Hattie is a hunger fighter in the making!
"Good job!" to everyone who supports the North Texas Food Bank and its mission to close the hunger gap in North Texas! 🍊
Last week, the NTFB, Congressman Marc Veasey (TX-33) and our friends at DoorDash Impact celebrated 1.3 million meals delivered to North Texas seniors facing hunger through our partnership with DoorDash's #ProjectDASH.
Huge congratulations to DoorDash and Project DASH for reaching a milestone of 100 million meals delivered as of last week!
Thank you to U.S. Representative Marc Veasey, Representative Mihaela E. Plesa, the staff from the office of Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, staff from the office of State Representative Rafael Anchía, Metrocrest Services, Grand Prairie United Charities, and Plano Super Bowl for joining us at the event and for your continued support. #TXLege
