The Need Continues
Combatiendo el hambre una comida a la vez
El Pasoans Fighting Hunger Food Bank is El Paso's only Food Bank.
In 2020 from March 17 to December 31 the EPFH food bank dramatically surpassed food distribution for 2019 by reaching a record of 139,700,000 pounds of food distributed across the Borderland.
In 2019 the food bank distributed over 32.5 million pounds of food compared to the 139,700 million distributed in 2020 during the worldwide pandemic. An average of 15 million pounds were distributed from May to December of 2020. On average, all the primary sites distribute food to between 9,000 and 10,000 families a day.
EPFH has now distributed over 1,536,247 emergency food boxes in the community.
The need continues to be great as the pandemic forges on and affects so many families. Children who no longer get breakfast and lunch at school and seniors who now find themselves shut-in. It has affected all in such dire ways.
As long as the clients keep coming, El Pasoans Fighting Hunger will be here to help … because no one should go hungry. If you are struggling to put food on your table and need assistance come to the food bank.
Check out the “Need Help” section of our website or call for information on one of the locations nearest you.
We are the food distribution center for over 132 partner agencies and programs including pantries, churches, schools, soup kitchens and shelters. Food is distributed where it is needed most throughout El Paso, Culberson and Hudspeth Counties.
