2009 Annual Report Close the Gap Year 1 of 3

2009 Annual Report : Close the Gap Year 1 o f 3 A MESSAGE FROM OUR BOARD PRESIDENT

Dear North Food Bank Friends and Supporters:

It’s hard to believe the North Texas Food Bank embarked on its campaign to Close the Gap on hunger in our community one year ago. As we begin our second year of this three-year initiative to provide every hungry North Texan with access to the nutritious food they need, I am more encouraged than ever by the unyielding support of this community – especially during these tough economic times.

The recession has brought an unprecedented number of families and individuals to our Member Agencies for help with food this year. With more North Texans suddenly finding themselves out of work or unable to provide for their families, we began to see the “new faces of hunger” – faces you might know. The economy has also had devastating effects on parents who work hard but simply can’t afford to make ends meet. Families living on the poverty line are being pushed over the edge.

It’s because of stories like these – stories of the new faces of hunger and of those who are all too accustomed to the pain of an empty stomach - that the North Texas Food Bank never stops working to provide food to those who need it. And we simply couldn’t do what we do without the support of this community. Thanks to the generosity of philanthropic foundations, corporate partners, faith groups and individuals, the Food Bank distributed more than 37 million meals in fiscal year 2009 – a 43 percent increase over last year. We acquired more than 10,000 new donors during the holiday season, and we received our first unrestricted $1 million gift! What an incredible demonstration of generosity from this community – and what a testament to the commitment so many of you have made to join us in our work to feed those in need.

As we begin another year, I am more hopeful than ever about the impact the Food Bank is making in the lives of our hungry neighbors – thanks to the support of friends like you. I hope you’ll continue to stand with us as we work to Close the Gap on hunger.

Sincerely,

W. Lee Coleman, Jr. Board President

2009 Annual Report : Close the Gap Year 1 o f 3 During this recession, people’s eyes have been opened to how great the need is in our community. Once they see the thousands of hardworking parents, senior citizens and children going hungry every day, right here in our own backyard, I know our community will continue to respond. We must use every resource available to ensure the needs of our neighbors are met.” - Jan Pruitt, North Texas Food Bank President & CEO

In light of the first year of our Close the Gap campaign coming to an end, this observation couldn’t ring more true. The down economy has affected people from all demographics and neighborhoods, and although Year One of Close the Gap ended above the set goal, now is no time to step back and relax.

Thousands of hard-working North Texans have recently been forced out of jobs they’ve had for decades. For the first time in their lives, parents and individuals are coming to our Member Agencies for help to feed themselves and their families. These people represent the “new faces of hunger” – faces you might know or recognize. They might live down the street from you. Their kids might go to school with your kids. And now, though they never thought it was possible, they need help to keep from going hungry.

Nancy is just one of the many new faces of hunger who came to one of our Member Agencies for help with food when her husband was laid off last April. Despite receiving unemployment assistance, the loss of income was substantial. Shortly after her husband lost his job, Nancy was hospitalized for a blood clot in her knee. Although she feels lucky to be alive, her doctor ordered her to stop working so she could fully recover. For months, both she and her husband were out of work. Since most of their unemployment money goes toward utilities and expensive medications, they rarely have enough left over to buy food.

“Everything happened at once!” says Nancy. “We’ve never been through anything like this.”

4 Imagine...A World Without Hunger.

2009 Annual Report : Close the Gap Year 1 o f 3

Fortunately, thanks to the generosity of this community, Nancy can take home groceries from the Share Center, a Food Bank Member Agency in Terrell.

“If it weren’t for this place, I don’t know what I would do,” she says. “This means a lot to us.”

Though North Texans like Nancy and her husband are struggling with hunger for the first time in their lives, there are thousands of families, individuals and seniors in our community living at or below the poverty line who are all too familiar with the pain of an empty stomach and being powerless to fix it.

Theressa is a single mother raising her children on her own, plus her two nephews and granddaughter. She’s always worked hard to support her family, but she has several chronic illnesses that have recently forced her to stop working. Last year alone, she was in the hospital a total of six months.

Theressa’s only income is the child support she receives. With expensive medical bills and medications to pay for, in addition to rent and utilities, she often wonders how she’s going to scrape enough money together to feed her children.

“After I pay [the bills], there’s no money for food,” she says.

But thanks to the generosity of this community, Theressa doesn’t have to worry about how to feed her family. She can take home nutritious groceries from New Hope Compassion Outreach Center, a Member Agency of the North Texas Food Bank.

“Last Christmas, Mom didn’t have any money for dinner,” says Theressa’s 12-year-old daughter, Jazmien. “Because of [the Food Bank], we were able to eat as a family.”

Hunger affects North Texans from all walks of life. But thanks to generous donations from foundations, corporations, faith groups and individuals in our community like you, full stomachs are a reality for families living on the edge of poverty, like Theressa’s – and for those who never thought they’d need to ask for help, like Nancy’s.

Thank you for joining in our passionate pursuit of a hunger-free community in the beginning of our Close the Gap campaign, and thank you for continuing your support to make Year Two even stronger than the first.

2009 Annual Report : Close the Gap Year 1 o f 3 A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT & CEO

Dear Friends,

There’s a popular saying about the workforce: “Do what you love, and love what you do.” Without a doubt, serving at the helm of the North Texas Food Bank as we work to feed an unprecedented number of hungry families, children and seniors is a job I truly love.

One reason that our work is so rewarding is the outpouring of support from friends in the community like you. We simply couldn’t feed those in need without the generosity of foundations, corporations, faith groups and individuals like you who have committed to join us in our passionate pursuit of a hunger-free community. You helped us distribute more than 37 million meals to those in need during the first year of our campaign to Close the Gap on hunger – and I know that with your help, we can provide even more meals as the campaign continues into its second year.

The support of this community has also enabled us to expand our efforts to combat childhood hunger. This past summer, we provided nutritious meals to more than 2,500 kids through programs like Food 4 Kids, Kids Cafe and our newest initiative, the Summer Lunch Box program. Your support also helped provide backpacks of weekend food for nearly 8,000 chronically hungry elementary school children through the Food 4 Kids backpack program during the 2008-2009 school year.

We’ve made great strides in the effort to feed those in need this year. But the need is still great, and we continue to face many challenges in these tough economic times. We can no longer get by with incremental increases in the amount of food we distribute. The need has surpassed all expectations and we will do whatever it takes to provide access to food for every hungry person in North Texas.

As we head into Year Two of our Close the Gap campaign, I hope I can count on your continued support to help provide hungry families, children and seniors with increased access to the food they need to be healthy and productive citizens. Thank you for your partnership!

With gratitude,

Jan Pruitt President & CEO

The North Texas Food Bank relieves hunger in two ways:

1. Food Distribution- We supply donated, purchased and prepared foods to 1,146 community-based programs, including food pantries, shelters, and soup kitchens. We also operate direct feeding services for children, including our Food 4 Kids “Back Pack Program” and Kids Cafe after school sites.

2. Food Stamp Outreach- We work with our 291 Member Agencies to identify and educate families and individuals who may be eligible for SNAP benefits.* Our outreach team helps prepare and submit applications and advocates for clients who experience barriers within the system. We estimate the number of meals to which we help provide access through Food Stamp Outreach using data on applications completed, application success rates, average SNAP benefits per household and estimated costs per meal.

*The Food Stamp Program was renamed the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, in 2008.

Feeding Seniors

Barbara hasn’t had an easy life. For the past 25 years she has struggled with chronic depression, and last summer doctors discovered an inoperable brain aneurysm. She also suffers from post- polio syndrome, the painful after-effects of having contracted polio as a child. She’s been confined to a wheelchair for years.

Because of these health issues, Barbara retired from her job at a trucking company last summer. Now her only income is in the form of disability assistance through her former employer – which isn’t nearly enough to pay for rent, utility bills, medications and groceries.

Barbara has never had to ask for help with food before.

But thanks to the compassion of those in this community, she knows she’s not alone. She can come to the White Rock Center of Hope, a Food Bank Member Agency, for nutritious groceries when she really needs them. She’s so thankful for the food she receives.

“This food makes the difference between giving up and going on,” she says. “Most importantly, it gives me hope.”

Feeding Families Dorothy Hamilton

Dorothy’s daughter and four grandkids have been living with her in order to make ends meet. But a few months ago, her daughter lost her job. The difficult job market has made it hard for her to find work, so right now Dorothy is supporting the entire family by working for a catering business at a local school. Her income just isn’t enough to cover the cost of rent, utilities and food for six people. Fortunately, Dorothy knows there’s a place she can go when she and her daughter need help to feed the children. Thanks to the generous support of this community, they can take home nutritious groceries from Holy Trinity Center, a North Texas Food Bank Member Agency in Dallas. Dorothy is so thankful for the food and compassion they receive.

“Thank you!” she says with genuine appreciation. “You don’t know how much it helps. Keep doing what you’re doing – you’re such a blessing.”

2009 Annual Report : Close the Gap Year 1 o f 3 OUR PROGRAMS

Agency University is a program designed to train Member Agencies on ways to enhance their food programs and better leverage their resources in order to increase their capacity to help more of those in need. Agencies currently choose from six different courses consisting of 16 classes taught by professionals in the fields of health and nutrition, fund development, organization and program implementation. This year we had 408 participants resulting in more than 1,760 hours of training, which were provided to our Agencies free of charge. Agency participants who decide to complete an entire course of classes also receive continuing education college credits from El Centro Community College.

Charitable Produce Center Founded in 1994 with Louise Gartner’s vision, the Charitable Produce Center was designed to transform the large amount of waste in the fresh produce market into a source of nourishment for hungry North Texans. The Food Bank extended this concept in 1999 with a grant from Kraft Foods, Inc., by developing the Rural Produce Initiative to distribute fresh produce to Member Agencies outside of Dallas County each week. In fiscal year 2009, the program provided more than 3,501,250 pounds of produce throughout all 13 counties in the North Texas Food Bank's service area.

Commodities Supplemental Food Program In 2000, the North Texas Food Bank became the first Commodities Supplemental Food Program (also known locally as People and Nutrition, or PAN) distributor in Texas. The program provides surplus USDA commodities for low income Dallas County residents who meet certain requirements, such as being 60 years old or older, children under six not receiving assistance from WIC (Women, Infants and Children Program) or pregnant, breastfeeding or postpartum women not receiving assistance from WIC. Each month, 7,500 participants each receive an estimated 32 pounds of USDA commodities at 98 PAN distribution sites in Dallas County. PAN is a partnership of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Catholic Charities of Dallas and the North Texas Food Bank.

Community Kitchen The Community Kitchen began as a North Texas Food Bank pilot program in early 2000. The mission of the Kitchen is to offer Food Bank Member Agencies nutritious, fully prepared frozen meals to heat and serve to the hungry while providing culinary job skills training to disadvantaged individuals with an interest in a food service career. Construction of a new 3,000 square foot kitchen at the Food Bank was completed in February 2002. The kitchen provides an average of 8,000 meals weekly in a variety of formats which are then distributed to 39 program sites. Up to 30 students, primarily from the Texas Second Chance Program in partnership with Dawson State Prison, receive food service training each year while helping to prepare meals.

Food For Families Food For Families is a cooperative effort between the North Texas Food Bank and more than 30 Member Agencies. Pre-qualified clients of participating Agencies are issued a voucher for specific food distribution. Clients meet Agency volunteers at a specific parking lot at a pre-determined time. A drive- through line is organized and Agency volunteers give food directly to clients from Food Bank trucks. In fiscal year 2009, more than 707,737 pounds of food were distributed to more than 16,619 families and 69,085 individuals.

Food 4 Kids Elementary school children on the free and reduced-price school meal program often face hunger when these meals are not available on weekends. The Food 4 Kids program helps to solve this problem by providing backpacks full of nonperishable, kid-friendly food for these chronically hungry children to take home on Friday afternoons. The program has grown exponentially from 200 participating elementary schools last year to 310 schools in fiscal year 2009. Approximately 7,900 children in Dallas, Denton, Collin, Rockwall and Fannin counties received a backpack full of food each weekend during the school year.

Hunger Link Prepared Foods The Dallas Hunger Link collects surplus prepared, perishable food from 25 donor hotels, restaurants, cafeterias and other food service kitchens. That food is then frozen in disposable aluminum steam table pans provided by the Food Bank. Specially trained Hunger Link drivers then pick up the food in refrigerated Hunger Link trucks and distribute it to on-site meal programs throughout Dallas. In fiscal year 2009, the Hunger Link program collected more than 524,000 pounds of food.

Kids Cafe The North Texas Food Bank’s Kids Cafe program began in 1998 as a way to provide nutritious after-school meals to children who may not have enough to eat when they go home from school. The Food Bank currently operates 28 Kids Cafe sites with generous funding from several donors, including Capital One. More than 270,739 meals were served last year to children in Dallas, Collin and Grayson counties.

Main Program The Main Program of the North Texas Food Bank gathers donations of both perishable and nonperishable food as well as nonfood items. These items are then distributed to North Texas area food pantries, soup kitchens, homeless shelters and other programs that serve people in need. In fiscal year 2009, the Food Bank’s Main Program distributed enough resources to Member Agency food pantries to serve 634,740 families. Area homeless shelters, day-care centers, soup kitchens and other facilities provided 5,215,929 on-site meals and snacks to the hungry in our community.

Nutrition Education/Operation Frontline Nutrition education is a priority at the North Texas Food Bank. Since partnering with Share Our Strength in 1996 to provide Operation Frontline (OFL) cooking and nutrition classes, the Food Bank has educated thousands of families in North Texas. Through direct outreach to clients at Member Agencies, OFL promotes short- and long-term solutions to hunger by providing participants of all ages with the skills and resources they need to make healthy, economical food choices. Every year, culinary professionals, nutritionists and food enthusiasts volunteer their time to teach low-income participants the basics of healthy cooking, nutrition, food budgeting and food safety. In fiscal year 2009, 272 people participated in 20 six-week classes, a 108 percent increase in the number of people served and a 43 percent increase in the number of classes offered since last year. Additionally, 12,038 people received nutrition education through workshops at Member Agencies and events in the community.

Texas Second Chance In 1997 the North Texas Food Bank formed a collaborative partnership with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Texas Second Chance allows selected prison confinees to volunteer at the Food Bank up to four days a week. As volunteer laborers, they receive job skills training in

warehousing and food service. This training vastly improves participants’ ability to successfully reintegrate into the community. Last year participants in the Texas Second Chance program provided more than 15,730 hours of community service for the Food Bank.

Serving U Serving U is a one-day teambuilding program hosted in our renovated warehouse. The program is designed to help key executive and departmental personnel sharpen their communication and teamwork skills while serving a larger purpose. In just one day, corporate teams learn how to work together effectively, set aside differences, plan common goals and build stronger bonds. At the same time, team members are helping to feed thousands of North Texans in need by volunteering together at the Food Bank. In fiscal year 2009, seven companies took part in Serving U, for a total of 656 participants. The following companies are Serving U alumni from the past two years: ALCOA, Brown-Forman, Capital One, Capital One Auto Finance, Capital One Commercial Banking, Communities Foundation of Texas, Covidien, CVS Caremark, Dallas Convention and Visitors Bureau, The Dallas Morning News, EnCana Oil and Gas, One Technologies, PepsiCo, Pizza Inn, Plexent, Powerwave, RSW Creative, Sabre Holdings, Southwest Airlines, Travelocity, University Park United Methodist Church, Wal-Mart and YUM! Brands, Inc.

The Volunteer Experience Volunteering at the North Texas Food Bank is truly a unique experience. With a variety of ways to serve – from packing and sorting food to helping with administrative tasks to teambuilding programs like Serving U – our volunteers enjoy a hands-on, engaging and effective community service experience that brings them back again and again. In fiscal year 2009, 17,004 volunteers contributed 57,580 hours of service to the North Texas Food Bank. The Food Bank is grateful for the hard work and dedication of our many volunteers and community leaders who help make our work possible. Feeding Kids Laura Bechtol, a counselor at F.P. Caillet Elementary School in Dallas sees first- hand how devastating the effects of hunger can be for a child. Of the 723 students at Caillet Elementary, the vast majority are on the free or reduced-price school meal program.

But thanks to the North Texas Food Bank’s Food 4 Kids backpack program, students can take home backpacks full of nutritious, kid-friendly food each weekend when they otherwise might not have anything to eat. Laura says the program has made a huge difference in the kids’ behavior and concentration in class. “If you’re hungry, your focus isn’t there,” she says. “If you don’t have your basic needs met, nothing else matters.” "Thank you for giving me the food and helping my family because some people don't give us things,” says one appreciative student. "My mom and dad are happy to see us eat healthy."

The North Texas Food Bank passionately pursues a hunger-free community.
