Feeding America Texas expands free food-assistance directory across all 254 Texas counties
HOUSTON, TX — Feeding America Texas, an independent 501(c)(3) sibling of Feed America (EIN 92-1761881), today confirmed full statewide coverage of food-assistance resources across all 254 Texas counties through the shared feedam.org directory infrastructure.
The Texas-focused entity (EIN 92-1776845) operates without paid placements, login requirements, or user-data collection. Every food pantry, SNAP retailer, WIC clinic, school meal site, and HRSA-funded community health center in the state is listed on equal terms, sourced from federal datasets and verified against state agency records.
Why a sibling entity
Feeding America Texas was incorporated as a separate 501(c)(3) to give donors the option of directing tax-deductible contributions toward food-assistance work specifically in Texas — distinct from the parent platform's national operations. The sibling entity files its own Form 990, holds its own Candid Platinum Seal of Transparency, and operates under its own board oversight while sharing the technical infrastructure of feedam.org.
"Texas families searching for an open food pantry, applying for SNAP, or finding a WIC clinic deserve a free, accurate, no-strings-attached directory. Feeding America Texas exists to make sure that statewide coverage stays funded — and that the donors who care about Texas specifically can give locally."

- Coordinates with state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services (state SNAP administration)) on Texas-specific data feeds
