As a friendly reminder, we will be closed today, September 2, in honor of Labor Day. Thank you for your understanding and we’ll see you tomorrow!

"I didn't know I had a green thumb! My grandmother is a horticulturalist she taught me everything I know about our plants. And now the same plants and herbs that grow on my grandmother's ranch are the same plants and herbs that grow on my ranch. Now that I am volunteering for the San Antonio Food Bank. Harvesting at Mission San Juan is my favorite volunteer opportunity. The food that has grown here immediately goes back to the community that needs it most." - Maria P

Duane, an Army veteran, comes from a long family history of servicemen who have bravely fought to protect our country, exemplifying the hard-working and selfless individuals who defend our freedom. Duane was honorably discharged and post active service, Duane’s relentless pain limited his ability to work full days. As the struggle to maintain steady employment took its toll, he found himself facing homelessness.
Duane states, “The San Antonio Food Bank is the only help that’s been constant for me… They support me and many other veterans struggling with hunger and homelessness.”
In Military City USA, San Antonio stands proud as home to one of the nation’s largest active and retired military populations, with 159,000 veterans in Bexar County alone. While it is our honor to serve those who bravely served our nation, we firmly believe that no veteran or active service member should struggle with hunger.
Your support helps veterans, like Duane, combat hunger. Donate today at safoodbank.org/donate 🍎
