The Annual Food for Families Drive Returns!
MEDIA SPONSOR
Food For Families is an annual project for the Longhorn Council, Scouting America; H.E.B. Grocery Company; and KWTX News 10. Together with food pantries across Central Texas, this one-day food drive collects non-perishable food and stocks the shelves of area food banks and pantries beyond the holiday season.
Each year, the love and generosity in this community is on full display during the annual Food for Families food drive, and we know that this year will be no different.
Shelf-stable food items, such as canned goods, peanut butter, rice, pasta, and sauces, may be placed in drop boxes available at Public Safety, City Hall, Woodway Family Center, Community Services, and the Pavilion.
The last day to bring in items will be Friday, November 21st. After the drive has concluded, we will collect the food and deliver it to the primary collection site at the News Channel 10 Studios off Highway 6.
Thank you to everyone for participating in this important tradition!
