On a typical day in southeast Texas, 5,000 children will go to bed hungry. Children without proper nutrition have difficulty concentrating in school, experience tardiness and are more prone to chronic illness that can hinder proper growth development. At the Houston Food Bank's Keegan Kitchen, volunteers assist with meal prep work (slicing, cutting, stirring, etc.) and packaging hot meals for daily distribution to participating Kid’s Café after-school programs. By providing nutritious meals and snacks, Kids Café helps children in need get on the right path for success.
To volunteer, register online at houstonfoodbank.org or, for additional information, contact kfills@houstonfoodbank.org.
