We stand with our feeding partner, Neighbors Nourishing Neighbors in Prosper, during this difficult time.

A recent fire forced the temporary closure of their pantry, resulting in the loss of their entire food supply. Thankfully, no one was injured, but the need in our community remains urgent.

The North Texas Food Bank is committed to supporting the Prosper community and will continue to assist Neighbors Nourishing Neighbors as they rebuild and work toward reopening.

If you or someone you know needs food assistance, please visit ntfb.org/food-assistance/find-a-food-pantry to locate nearby pantries.

You can also make a difference by donating directly to Neighbors Nourishing Neighbors at n3foodpantry.org to help them recover and restock their shelves. Together, we can ensure no one goes hungry.

✨ Celebrating Our Top 100 Volunteers! ✨

In 2024, our 100 most involved volunteers gave an incredible 20,608 hours to the North Texas Food Bank — a value of nearly $310,000! 💚

From packing food boxes to distributing senior meals, collecting cans at the State Fair of Texas, and more, these volunteers are the heartbeat of our mission to close the hunger gap in North Texas.

💬 “Our mission would not be possible without their commitment,” says Elizabeth Campo and Riley Mainord, NTFB Volunteer Specialists.

Special shoutout to Mike Saxton and Elaine Simmons, two of our inspiring volunteers! Elaine found a new purpose in retirement, giving back over 130 hours in 2024:
"I wanted to give back with the company that continues to do so much for people."

Thank you to ALL our volunteers who make a difference every day! 🌟 View the full list of top volunteers at https://ntfb.org/blog-thank-you-to-ntfbs-top-100-volunteers/!
