Lake Whitney Area Food Bank

Annual "Food for Families" Food Drive Is our Fall Event

"Our Daily Bread" is the official name of the Whitney Food Bank

We are still taking contributions now

Whitney’s Biggest Food Drive Is Nearly Here

Each month we serve 400 families with almost 1000 family members by providing over 18,000 pounds of food. Help us serve the people who live in our community - children, the elderly, and low-income families - by donating food items or by making a financial donation.

Our Daily Bread Food Bank is part of Lake Whitney Ministerial Alliance (LWMA), a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving the needs of people in the Lake Whitney area.

The Lake Whitney Ministerial Alliance food bank operates completely through donations and volunteers. No one is paid. All donations remain in our community and go directly to providing for those in need.
