Our mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth or infant mortality.
Around 1 million people in the 18 southeast Texas counties served by Houston Food Bank are considered food insecure, meaning they lack consistent access to enough nutritious food to fuel a healthy life. In order to address this issue, the Houston Food Bank distributes food and other essentials to those in need through a network of more than 1,600 community partners. In addition, we also provide programs and services aimed at helping families achieve long-term stability including nutrition education, job training, health management, and help in securing state-funded assistance.
Our mission is to enable underprivileged high school students to join the economic mainstream by providing them the knowledge and work experience required to succeed as technical professionals.
