Donate to LEAFB

Little Elm Area Food Bank has been serving families in the Little Elm Area for 40 years. We could not do the work we do without the generosity of many groups and individuals. Check out this page for more on how you can help give to this worthy cause.

Hunger Facts

97 cents of every dollar goes towards getting food on the table for families in our community. We receive no direct support from any local, county, state or federal agencies.

We are so grateful the support that we receive from individuals and businesses! Any amount that you give goes a long way to helping us provide food to the families in our service area.

Each family we assist receives three boxes of dried and canned goods, one box of refrigerated items  (milk, cheese, and butter), and one box of frozen products (including meats and other frozen items).

 

We understand that this does not fully sustain a family for an entire month, but it serves to help alleviate some of the challenges posed by rising grocery prices.

 

The average total cost of items given out ranges from $175 for small families to $200 for our larger families. Not counting any seasonal items or pet food they might receive from our partnership with Friends of the Little Elm Animal Shelter (FLEAS).

Some items that we give out are harder to come by than others. Often, we end up purchasing these items ourselves to make sure that our shelves remain stocked. 

​

For those who would rather target their giving, we encourage you to consider sponsoring one of these items. We serve around 200 families a month, so your donation can make sure that every family served gets these items. If you're feeling even more generous, consider giving monthly!
