The South Texas Food Bank, located in Laredo, TX, has been a crucial bridge between those suffering from hunger and those willing to help for over 30 years. They provide a transparent and efficient channel to ensure that donations reach the people who need them the most. Their mission is to alleviate hunger in the South Texas area by collecting and distributing food through partner agencies and programs, while also raising awareness and educating the community about the realities of hunger.

They achieve this by soliciting adequate funding and surplus goods, distributing them to member agencies, and creating programs that combat hunger in their service area. The South Texas Food Bank has strong partnerships with Feeding America, Feeding Texas, the Texas Department of Agriculture, and other organizations with similar missions. Over time, they have expanded their service area to eight counties, serving communities in need.

With their newly opened 93,000 square foot facility, equipped with storage space, a kitchen, and walk-in coolers and freezers, they are well-prepared to meet the rising demand for their services. As a certified member of Feeding Texas, Feeding America's Food Bank Network, and the United Way of Laredo, the South Texas Food Bank continues to make a significant impact in the fight against hunger
