Donate Food 

Most Needed Items (post for your community food drive so everyone knows what's best to give)

A lot of canned peas, bottles of fruit juice, frozen chicken, fresh apples…and thousands of other items are donated to the Houston Food Bank by the food industry and the community each year. Donated food helps fill the stomachs of impoverished individuals in our 18-county service area.

Thank you for giving to them through the Houston Food Bank.

• Food Industry Donors
• Community Food Drives
