Food from the Bar (FFTB) is a month-long competition among Houston’s legal community where participants earn points by donating funds, food, and volunteer time to benefit the Houston Food Bank. Through their donations and support, the legal community helps Houston Food Bank feed more kids and families in our community. The event is timed to raise critical resources just before summer break, the time of greatest need for many local families who struggle to provide the extra food needed for kids not receiving breakfast and lunch at school.
