Founded in 1982, the North Texas Food Bank is a nonprofit center for food distribution that procures donated surplus food and transfers it in usable quantities to 917 feeding and education programs in 13 North Texas counties. These programs include food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters, after-school and senior citizen programs and Food Stamp Outreach. Close the Gap is the NTFB’s 3-year initiative to unite the community to narrow the food gap by providing access to 50 million meals annually. Last year, 26 million meals were distributed. Each month, agency pantries distribute food to more than 50,000 families, and on-site meal programs serve 435,000 meals/snacks. Every dollar donated to the NTFB provides five meals for the hungry. Out of every dollar donated, 97 cents goes directly to hunger relief programs.
