UPDATE March 18, 2024
From the Food Bank: The San Antonio Food Bank takes pride in fighting hunger, feeding hope in our 29 county service area. We believe that no child should go to bed hungry, adults should not
have to choose between a hot meal and utilities, nor a senior sacrifice medical care for the sake of a meal.
Founded in 1980, The San Antonio Food Bank has quickly grown to serve 100,000 individuals a week in one of the largest service areas in Texas. Our focus is for clients to have food for today but to also have the resources to be self-sufficient in the future.
Fighting hunger is our number one priority but we also serve to educate and provide assistance in many other ways. We achieve this through our variety of programs and resources available to families, individuals, seniors, children, and military members in need.
The San Antonio Food Bank strives to maintain the highest standard of efficiency while providing food to those in need. With only a 2% overhead, 98% of donated resources go to help set the table for 100,000 individuals a week.
We rely on the generosity and support of local businesses, churches, foundations, corporations, government, civic groups and individuals in order to successfully continue serving Southwest Texans who are at risk for going hungry.
This corporate initiative was spearheaded by the Shareholders of Sol Schwartz & Associates. In addition to volunteering, 9,969 lbs. of food were sorted and boxed, providing meals for 7,788 families.
“Not only was it rewarding giving back but we also had the opportunity to learn about the different ways the San Antonio Food Bank contributes to the community,” noted Jeff Albrecht, Managing Shareholder for Sol Schwartz & Associates. “They do a remarkable job in helping people in need and I was grateful to share this experience with my Sol Schwartz & Associates colleagues.”
