There are dozens of opportunities to take advantage of DFW Restaurant Week this August thanks to prix-fixe menus at close to 150 eateries across the metroplex. Reservations are already open for preview weekend, August 1-4, as well as for the main week, August 5-11, and the extended dates, August 12-September 1. The best part? Around 20% of every meal purchased in the Dallas area supports the North Texas Food Bank and your neighbors facing hunger. (In Tarrant County, each meal supports Lena Pope).

The NTFB is so appreciative that The Bioworld Foundation has committed to providing 1.5 million meals to its neighbors over the next five years. The $500,000 pledge includes an NTFB truck sponsorship and will ensure that the NTFB can provide children, families and older adults facing hunger with access to 300,000 meals each year for the next five years. Raj Malik, founder and CEO of Bioworld, says the company has long believed in supporting its community, especially through work that impacts youth. “Bioworld has always believed in giving back to local communities. Our outreach focuses on helping students and young people; hunger relief is a key component of that mission,” he says.

The North Texas Food Bank is thankful for CVS Pharmacy customers for partnering with us as we work to close the hunger gap in North Texas. Texas now ranks as the hungriest state in the nation, and the 13 counties served by the North Texas Food Bank have the fourth-highest number of people experiencing food insecurity in the country, with nearly 778,000 of our neighbors facing hunger. Through the support of its customers, CVS Pharmacy granted the NTFB nearly $119,000—or enough to provide access to close to 360,000 meals. Grant funds went toward NTFB’s general operations and its vision for a hunger-free, healthy North Texas. Read more at https://lnkd.in/gZvc4Rc2.

The Junior Kernel, which requires 64 hours of services at NTFB, volunteers up to three times a week during the summer, including at Kids Camp, where he helps teach 8 to 11-year-olds about hunger in their community. “There is never a dull moment,” says Eric, a rising senior at Plano Senior High School.
