FOOD FOR THOUGHT

DID YOU KNOW....


  ...that there are over 100,000 people in Collin County, half of which are children, who who are food insecure, meaning they do not know if they will have enough to eat?


...that Texas was recently identified as the #2 state with hunger problems?

Plano Parkway, Plano, TX. 75093.  Reception to follow by the Joy Class in Piro Hall.  In lieu of flowers, please consider a love offering to the Bob Olds Fund at St. Andrew, to help with internment costs in the St. Andrew Columbarium.

The Seven Loaves Food Pantry & CommUnity Center is committed to holistically serving people in need in Plano, Texas and Collin County.  We seek to meet the basic needs for food to all who are food insecure and access to health care and social services of those at and below the poverty level.

Over 100,000 people in Collin County,  half of which are children, are food insecure.  Seven Loaves Food Pantry, in partnership with North Texas Food Bank and Plano Independent School District, desires to help see that all Collin County residents have the nutrition they need.


Seven Loaves Food Pantry is working with the North Texas Food Pantry to Close the Gap on hunger in North Texas by establishing a "hub and spoke" distribution system which will provide over 1 million meals a year into Collin County.
