Hunger is hidden in plain sight.
It's the family in Plano working two jobs but still falling short as grocery costs have surged 29% since 2020. It's the 26% of local students who are economically disadvantaged, often relying on school meals as their only stable nutrition.
In America, 47 million people—1 in 7 households—face food insecurity. In our own zip codes, local demand for assistance has nearly doubled this year alone.

Our Community
Neighbors helping neighbors since 1997.
27 Years of Consistency.
Since 1997, we have never run out of food. We operate with an open-door policy, serving everyone without judgment or proof of residency.
How We Help Our Community
From fresh food to transition assistance, we provide comprehensive support to help individuals and families through difficult times.
Food Pantry
We provide fresh meat, fruits, vegetables, dairy, and a wide variety of nutritious food sources. Every family receives enough groceries to prepare meals for the week—no limits, no judgment.
Homeless Support
For those without stable housing, we offer non-perishable food, bottled water, hygiene products, and care kits. We're proud to serve as an official summer water station for the City of Plano.
Transition Assistance
Through our Love Again Overstock program, we help families transitioning from shelters or difficult circumstances furnish their new living spaces completely free of charge.
Holiday Support
No family should go without during the holidays. We provide complete Thanksgiving and Christmas meals, plus partner with WFAA's Santa's Helpers to bring toys and joy to children.
Food Education
We believe in empowering families with knowledge. Our education program covers food safety, preparation techniques, storage tips, and nutrition information to reduce waste and improve health.
Personal Items
Diapers are expensive, and personal care shouldn't be a luxury. We provide diapers, wipes, and personal care items for families with infants, young children, and older adults who need assistance.
