About  The  Brazos  Valley Food Bank:

"A central distribution site in the Brazos Valley that unites food donors, volunteers and hunger-relief agencies, the Brazos Valley Food Bank reclaims, then distributes surplus food to local partners - nonprofit organizations and church sponsored pantries - that, in turn, bring nourishment and hope to our neighbors in need. 

 

The Brazos Valley Food Bank has been the "hub" of an anti-hunger relief network of over 40 different agencies that feed the hungry throughout the Brazos, Burleson, Grimes, Madison, Robertson and Washington Counties. In 1985, we distributed 50,000 pounds of food. We project 2011 distribution to top 4 million pounds. "
