General Info

Food Bank of Corpus Christi is also part of Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Join our social networking community & help us fight hunger in South Texas and globally. Food Bank of Corpus Christi was recognized nationally with an award for its Nutrition Education Mobile Kitchen. This innovative program delivers food and nutrition education classes to rural communities and is the first of its kind in the United States. Food Bank of Corpus Christi is one of only two food banks in Texas authorized by H-E-B Grocery to collect perishables from their stores. In 2006, 889, 685 pounds of perishable products ( almost 20% of our total food distributions ) were collected from this invaluable partner. The Rural Delivery Program serves our community via our refrigerated truck, which transports food to 55 distribution sites in 11 counties every week. An innovative outreach program in partnership with the Health and Human Service Commission of Texas ( HHSC ) and the Texas Food Bank Network provides application assistance to qualified individuals for all HHSC programs including: Food Stamps, Adult and Children's Medicaid, Children's Health Care Program ( CHIPS ), Women's Healthcare Program, and Long' Term Care for seniors. Food Bank operates a distribution pantry located in the Nutrition Education building, offering a "shopping model" where participants can select food of their liking as opposed to receiving a bag of pre' selected items. This offers our clients a more dignified approach to food distribution. Food Bank of Corpus Christi is an independent, nonprofit 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) organization that solicits and distributes food that might otherwise go to waste or be discarded by manufacturers, wholesalers, or retailers.
