Everyone Should Have Access to the Food They Need

We believe that access to healthy food is a basic human right and not a privilege.

Tarrant Area Food Bank empowers communities to eliminate hunger by providing food, education and resources through innovation and collaboration. As a regional clearinghouse for donated food, we provide a nutritious mix of fresh, frozen and shelf-stable products to a network of hunger-relief charities and social services organizations in North Texas. These hunger-relief partners are located in urban, suburban and rural areas of Fort Worth and 13 surrounding counties.
