Agencies

Compassionate. Caring. Community-connected.

These are just a few words that describe the nearly 400 hunger relief agencies and programs who are members of the Houston Food Bank. Collectively, they feed more than 80,000 hungry individuals each week. Working together with the food bank, we are leading the fight against hunger.

Houston Food Bank members include church food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters for the abused, and places where meals are served to seniors and children. Food can help a family struggling toward self-sufficiency, or an individual struggling for survival.

The Houston Food Bank's agency relations staff works to ensure that member agencies maintain high standards and levels of service to their clients.
