FY17 Annual Report North Texas Food Bank Annual Report 2017 | Page 4

Together, we can
transform North Texas.
Thank you for making FY2016-2017 an outstanding
year for the North Texas Food Bank. With your
support, we were able to provide access to almost
70 million nutritious meals for hungry children,
seniors and families across 13 counties. To date, our
efforts have enabled us to reach 75 percent of our
goal to close the meal gap and provide 92 million
nutritious meals annually by 2025.
All remarkable efforts to support our mission
couldn’t be accomplished without the support of
our community, as well as our dedicated staff and
volunteers. Our volunteers contributed more than
110,360 hours at our distribution center, mobile
pantry sites, and at our Community Pantry in South
Message from Trisha Cunningham,
Dallas. We are honored to have support from
numerous individuals who contribute through
countless fundraising channels, along with dedicated
President & CEO
foundations and corporate sponsors.
This is an organization that has proven results;
working tirelessly to enrich the lives of the clients served. The
work of NTFB and its many community partners to end hunger is
foundational in transforming North Texas for the better. I am honored
to carry the torch passed on to me by the late Jan Pruitt. I know that
with the help of our board, our partners and the North Texas
community, we will reach our goal of closing the hunger gap and
providing access to 92 million meals by 2025.
We can’t do this without you. Our journey continues and it takes
each and every one of us coming together to fight hunger in our
community. Your partnership is creating a hunger-free, healthy
North Texas.
Gratefully,
Trisha Cunningham
President & CEO
