About North Texas Food Bank
The foundation is overwhelmingly focused on hunger relief in the North Texas region, primarily funding food distribution and partner organizations rather than a broad portfolio of unrelated causes. Nearly the entire reported endowment was distributed in very large, concentrated grants to operating partners and pass-through channels that directly support food access. Smaller, repeat grants to the Feeding North Texas Foundation suggest support for an affiliated or intermediary philanthropy that sustains local food programs. The giving is operational and programmatic rather than exploratory or diversified across issue areas.

About North Texas Food Bank
North Texas Food Bank’s reported giving is dominated by two enormous hunger-relief grants, one of $159,404,581 in 2024 and another of $149,623,728 in 2023, both routed to Various Organizations for hunger relief. That pattern shows a funder that operates through large, concentrated transfers to local distribution and service channels rather than a broad mix of unrelated grants. The foundation’s role is tightly tied to food access in North Texas, with giving centered on organizations that move food, meals, and emergency assistance to people facing food insecurity. A second thread in the data is support for Feeding North Texas Foundation, which received general support grants in both 2023 and 2024. Those awards, while much smaller than the large pass-through grants, point to an affiliated infrastructure relationship that helps sustain local food-system capacity over time. Across the available record, the foundation’s grantmaking is local, program-driven, and closely aligned with direct hunger relief.
What North Texas Food Bank Funds
In emergency food assistance, the foundation backed large-scale distribution by giving $159,404,581 in 2024 to Various Organizations for hunger relief. The following year’s $149,623,728 award to Various Organizations for hunger relief shows the same operational approach across consecutive years. Support for affiliated infrastructure also appears in the grants to Feeding North Texas Foundation. In 2024, it received $445,165 for general support, following a 2023 grant of $278,898 for the same purpose. That pattern suggests recurring backing for a local entity connected to hunger-relief operations. The grant record also reflects a strong emphasis on direct service delivery through partner organizations that help food-insecure individuals and families access food in the North Texas region.
How North Texas Food Bank Gives
Typical grant size is highly skewed: the p25 is $403,598, the median is $75,034,446, and the p75 is $152,068,941. That spread reflects a few extremely large awards alongside much smaller support grants. The recent record also shows repetition across years: Feeding North Texas Foundation received general support in both 2023 and 2024, while the largest grants were again routed to Various Organizations for hunger relief in consecutive years. The foundation does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments.
