FEEDING AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS

The core program at Tarrant Area Food Bank is the collection and distribution of donated food to partner food pantries and social service centers such as shelters, after-school programs, soup kitchens and senior centers providing meals and/or snacks.

To complement this food assistance program, we offer:

• Two different direct feeding programs for children
• Nutrition education to individuals and families receiving food assistance
• Help applying for national nutrition benefits and related health benefits

• Culinary job-training for low-income adults
• Community gardening support in the form of technical assistance, nutrition information and a website for community gardeners to share information, needs and resources.

For the community, we offer:

• Tours of our warehouse
• Guest speakers knowledgeable about local hunger and Tarrant Area Food Bank.
