What is Project Hunger - Manor Texas?
Project Hunger mission is to decrease the number of families experiencing food insecurity (when people don't have enough to eat and don't know where their next meal will come from) in Manor, Texas. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and US Census data it is estimated that 1,427 families in Major are experiencing some amount of food insecurity.
In order to decrease food insecurity, Project Hunger strives to increase the capacity of local food pantries by helping to get more cans and boxes of food into the pipeline though coordinating food drives, community meals and other initiatives. We are also looking for ways to increase capacity by expanding food distribution days, times and sites, and helping to coordinate all food distribution efforts to better serve families in need.
In 2025, Project Hunger’s goal was to put an additional 12,000 cans/boxes of food into the system. We achieved our goal on November 13, 2025. A major thank you to the Harvest of Hope campaign run by Danielle Keller. She worked with students, teachers and administrators at MISD who all contributed to the campaign to raise over 5,000 cans/boxes of food. Our total as of December 15, 2025, is 12,983 cans/boxes of food added to local food pantries.
For 2026, we have set a goal of getting 18,000 cans/boxes to local food pantries, that’s 1,500 cans/boxes of food per month. We are looking for local businesses to “Sponsor a Month” and donate 1,500 units of food or contribute $1,500 so we can purchase food. If you want to conduct a food drive, please let us know.
In 2026, Project Hunger also helping to expand the Meals for Manor program (see article below). We are cooking a minimum of 1,560 additional meals as part of the expansion.
