“Our employees donated enough food to provide over 1,242 meals to the families that depend on North Texas Food Bank,” said Chris Childress, Director of Human Resources. “It’s so important to give back, especially this time of year. Pillar employees never fail to do just that.”
“Congratulations, to Pillar Income on a successful canned food drive," commented Doyle Carnahan of North Texas Food Bank. “We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude for your efforts. Your participation and hard work in the struggle against hunger is commendable and greatly appreciated."

In fiscal year 2015, NTFB provided access to some 63 million meals but the need for hunger relief in North Texas today is much larger. To combat increasing food insecurity in North Texas, the Food Bank recently launched a 10-year plan to provide access to 92 million nutritious meals annually by 2025, a nearly 50 percent increase from the current output. NTFB is a member of Feeding America, a national hunger relief organization.
