The End of a Great School Year in Houston!
This past school year was a huge success! Houston saw the largest group of families ever participate in Brighter Bites. During just the spring semester we served more than 1.1 million pounds of produce and nutrition education to over 5,000 families at 41 elementary and middle schools and Head Start and after-school programs in Houston ISD, Fort Bend ISD, Pasadena ISD, KIPP Houston Public Schools, Neighborhood Centers Inc., and Southwest Schools.

We appreciate the effort and enthusiasm from our fantastic volunteers, families, and staff members who work tirelessly through the weeks to create communities of health throughout Houston. A special thanks to our partners at the Houston Food Bank, Sysco, H-E-B, Feeding Texas, SNAP-Ed, Texas Department of Agriculture, UTHealth School of Public Health, and CATCH, who continue to support the work of Brighter Bites in Houston and beyond.
