HARKER HEIGHTS FOOD CENTER

The Harker Heights Food Center holds a lease with the First Baptist Church of Harker Heights to provide food services to a community in need.  

The mission of the Harker Heights Food Center is to strive to ensure everyone has access to sufficient nutritious food and create access to good, healthy food in our community.  We believe that access to nutritious food is a basic human right. We are committed to responding to the needs of our community through food distribution and support services.  We value nutrition education and advocacy programs that lead toward self-sufficiency and sustainable food systems.  We value the wise use of resources, creating new ways to improve our services and effectively utilizing community support that sustains our work.

 The Harker Heights Food Center is a registered community food center with the Central Texas Food Bank.  The Central Texas Food Bank works with food donors across the country, financial supporters and volunteers to fill unmet needs in Central Texas. This commitment from private, government and charitable partners has allowed them to bring 31 million meals to the Central Texas community in 2015 and into the hands of families and local nonprofits like the Harker Heights Food Center.  In turn, the Harker Heights Food Center shares free food and our knowledge on low-cost, healthy eating with families in need to connect families to life-enhancing resources and strengthen community services.
