Project Feed Texas: Help Feed At Risk Youth & Families Throughout Texas
por UVALDE FOUNDATION FOR KIDSExtended Project Description: Feed Texas Project
As we navigate into 2026, Texas at risk youth and families continue to face ongoing food security crisis. Texans, including 1.7 million children, face a widening "hunger gap" as benefits fail to keep pace with rising costs.
Project Overview: Feed Texas
Project Feed Texas, an ongoing initiative of The Uvalde Foundation For Kids, serves as a frontline response to community hunger crisis. We recognize that food insecurity is a precursor to community instability and personal trauma. Our project is designed to provide a consistent, comprehensive, and dignified food and grocery lifeline to low-income families, homeless and "at-risk youth."
Core Operations & Impact
Utilizing an agile network of partner agencies and mobile food pantries, Feed Texas ensures that zip code does not determine a child’s access to nutrition. Our mobile outreaches focus on school communities first!
* Nutritional Diversification: We supplement household budgets with a mix of fresh produce, proteins, and shelf-stable goods, prioritizing health-conscious options that are often the first to be cut during benefit reductions.
* 24 hour Street Outreach: Our specialized teams conduct direct outreach to reach the "unseen" hungry—specifically youth and families in transitional housing who may no longer qualify for federal aid.
* Immediate Relief: In direct response, we have distributed thousands of emergency H-E-B gift cards to families in high-need areas in 2025 during the SNAP crisis, restoring dignity by allowing parents to shop for their children’s specific needs.

* The Hub: Our Central Texas residency chapters in Temple and Dallas and San Antonio serve as scalable model for this work, offering a stable, centralized resource where youth can find not only a hot meal but safety and temporary shelter.
