A note regarding the Food Center

The Board of the Denton Community Food Center is committed to taking extra precautions to keep our volunteers, clients and food supply safe.  

​

We  clean and sanitize surfaces regularly and are asking that everyone wash their hands often and thoroughly.  Please stay home if you are feeling ill.

​

We continue to expect Denton County's population growth (82 people a day move here) and the continuing challenges of the local economy to keep the demand for food assistance high. 

​

  

The distribution of food is basic to everyone's health and well-being. We are committed to providing emergency amounts of nutritious food to the hunger insecure members of the Northern Denton community who qualify by USDA/TDA standards.  See details regarding our “NEW appointment system " below.

​

We are seeing a larger number of families with school age children requiring food due to the economy and the population increases in Denton County.

​

Your donation will go far in helping us meeting this increased demand.

Our sincerest thanks for your support!
