The North Texas Food Bank passionately pursues a hunger-free community.
Since it was founded in 1982 by Liz Minyard, Kathryn Hall, Jo Curtis and Lorraine Griffin
Kircher, the NTFB has distributed 362 million pounds of food across our 13-county
service area, which includes Dallas, Denton, Collin, Fannin, Rockwall, Hunt, Grayson,
Kaufman, Ellis, Navarro, Lamar, Delta and Hopkins counties.
Last year, 32 million pounds of food was distributed from the North Texas Food Bank (NTFB) warehouse, which
underwent a $4.4 million renovation that enables them to distribute 50 percent more food.
Each month last year, member agency pantries distributed food to more than 43,000
families, and on-site meal programs served more than 410,000 meals and snacks.
For fiscal year 2006, the NTFB was No. 8 among more than 200 America’s Second
Harvest food banks around the nation for pounds distributed. The NTFB is consistently ranked as one of the top nonprofit organizations in Dallas/Fort Worth.
