The campaign has now expired but it's not too late to support this charity.
Visit the charity's profileEl Pasoans Fighting Hunger (EPFH) is El Paso's only food bank and a member of Feeding America, the nation's largest hunger relief network.
The Food Bank is the distribution center for over 132 partner pantries across the borderland region and collaborative hub for hunger initiatives that assists in SNAP applications and nutrition education. EPFH also distributes healthy and nutritious food to 982 client-choice, mobile pantries which provide food to underserved/unserved communities, including colonias.
The food bank currently serves over 170,000 food insecure people with 1 in 3 El Pasoans unsure of where their next meal will come from. Food insecurity is defined as being limited at times to having adequate food because of a lack of money and other resources.
Hunger does not discriminate. EPFH serves children, single-parent households, veterans, senior citizens, and working-class families. Many of those we serve are often faced with tough choices to put food on their table.
Help raise awareness about the issue of food insecurity and raise critically needed funds to support our programs. Every $1 raised provides 7 meals to our neighbors facing hunger across the borderland.
