The North Texas Food Bank's pantries distribute food to more than 50,000 families each month and on-site meal programs serve 435,000 meals and snacks. Its $6 tribute cards feature a swirl of snowflakes made of plates, spoons, and forks.
One of the NTFB's programs is Food 4 Kids. Children identified by school personnel as being at risk of hunger receive approximately four pounds of food in their backpacks each Friday. On Monday, children return the empty backpacks and they are refilled for the next Friday. In the 2009-2010 school year, the NTFB provided 278,252 backpacks.
The card cost goes down to $4.50 each if you buy 50.
