We just took one step closer to eliminating hunger from North Texas!
On August 15, the Mindful Bites crew volunteered at the National Texas Food Bank (NTFB). With a total crew of 50, 20 being a part of our Mindful Bites team and community members (HungerMitao), we were able to raise 16,723 pounds of food in two hours! That makes 13,936 meals, all of which are distributed to 744,000 food-insecure people in the 12 counties of Allen, Carrollton, Desoto, Fairview, Fate, Frisco, Plano, Richardson, Kemp, Lavone, McKinney, and Sachse! By volunteering for just two hours, we were able to feed thousands of our hungry neighbors.
Not only this, but members from Mindful Bites say that volunteering is fun. The feeling of making a difference in our community is a powerful and unrivaled one! On August 15, we took one step closer to coming together as a community and successfully eliminating hunger from North Texas. So join us–help us take one more step towards eliminating hunger in North Texas.
