36th Annual Food for Families Drive - Help us fight hunger in our community!

**Food For Families** is an annual project for the Longhorn Council, Scouting America, H.E.B. Grocery Company, and KWTX News 10. Together with food pantries across Central Texas, this one-day food drive collects non-perishable food and stocks the shelves of area food banks and pantries beyond the holiday season.

The 36th Annual Food for Families Drive is approaching, and we are preparing for an eventful day on November 21, 2025.

Operation Feeding Temple and many local organizations will be participating in Texas's largest one-day food drive. With the support of volunteers, community leaders, businesses, and individuals like you, we can work together to combat hunger in our community.
