Welcome to the Montgomery County Food Bank

MCFB is a non-profit center for food distribution. We procure donated surplus food and transfer those goods in usable quantities to 41 non-profit agencies in Montgomery County, Texas.

Approximately 450,000 people live in the Montgomery County service area and of those, approximately 42,000 people (9.4% of the population) live below the poverty level. More than 40% served by the pantries are children under the
age of 18.

Founded in 1985, 15 million pounds of food has been distributed and in 2009 more than 4.5 million pounds of food/grocery products were distributed. Agency food pantries distribute food to more than 30,000 individuals per month.

For Each Donated $1:

For each $1 donated 8 meals are given to those in need!

Out of Every Dollar Donated:

$.95 goes to food distribution
$.05 goes to administration/fundraising.

Help Us Serve The Community!
