FEED

Every day in the greater Austin area there are over 100,000 children who are food insecure. That means 1 out of 5 kids doesn't know where their next meal will come from.

EDUCATE

Hunger has a direct effect on a child's educational performance and experience. This results in an inability to concentrate, behavioral problems, poor performance in school and a higher dropout rate.

SERVE

As we become involved with families through our feeding program we have the opportunity to learn about other needs the families may have. Reaching out and serving them with the love of Jesus is our ultimate goal.

TESTIMONIALS

Our work in the community makes an impact on food insecurity.

Being in the education system, I see first hand the effects of hunger on children. Not only does it affect their learning ability and if has a toll on them emotionally, physically and socially. Hungry Souls, by providing families with weekend meals, helps alleviate some of the issues we see in our students.

No child should have to face hunger. Hungry Souls is actively showing children and families the love of Jesus by meeting their needs and that's why I wanted to contribute. I'm happy to play a small part in their mission by creating meal plans. It warms my heart when I receive feedback from children and families that have really enjoyed a recipe or meal that I personally planned!
