For over 45 years, Hunt County Shared Ministries has helped families who have run into hard times. Perhaps there’s been job loss, illness, a family crisis, or any number of other things that can cause a family to suddenly face hunger.
It is a well-known fact that a child who eats well will have a better opportunity to be physically and mentally healthy and to be successful in school. Many senior adults are faced with the choice of whether to fill a necessary prescription or buy food. A mother cannot concentrate at work if she’s worried about what the family will eat for dinner, and a father should not have to go to bed hungry because he sacrificed a meal for his children. Hunt County Shared Ministries is a safety net for Hunt County residents.
From a small pantry inside a church to an organization partnering with local food pantries, schools, churches, and organizations to serve over 80,000 people each year – it’s a testament to what can happen when a community comes together to help their neighbors in need.
