It’s a Wrap in Houston

It’s been a whirlwind!  The Houston operation doubled in size!  We took on more schools than we’ve ever done and served more families than we ever have.  We were able to give them even more variety with new items such as persimmons, rutabaga, and kabocha squash.  We’ve experimented with new recipes and snacks.  And we overhauled our education materials to include more of what you asked for! More recipes, more cooking skills, and more information about keeping your family healthy. 2014 has been a tremendous year of growth for Brighter Bites.  None of which would be possible without the wonderful staff of the Houston Food Bank and North Texas Food Bank who made it their mission to get us more produce.  We love our warehouse staff who took care to build our pallets and our fun-loving drivers who made sure it was delivered. And we can’t forget about our dedicated volunteers who participated every week at each site.  It’s hard work and nobody knows it better than them. Brighter Bites is really a team effort and we’re thankful to have so much support!  Thank you all for another great semester!
