Demand for food pantry services has continued to rise in DFW this year.
The mobile food pantry is just one of many ways the food bank and nonprofit organizations are trying to fight hunger. However, this year has been a challenge due to inflation, rising costs of food, and the rising costs of housing as high demand in North Texas sends rent and property values to new heights.
In March, SNAP recipients also started getting less money once extra COVID-era benefits ended and that pushed a lot of families to the edge. At many of The Salvation Army's locations in North Texas, demand for food pantry services has continued to rise. Across nine of The Salvation Army's locations in North Texas, the number of first-time food pantry clients increased by an average of 26% from January to July of this year.
