Project Description

The Houston Food Bank (HFB) utilized their investment from UDF to rehabilitate and add space to their current properties and to move the location o their kitchen to this updated site in order to combine programs and reduce costs. The kitchen was previously located separate from the main warehouse, where most volunteers are used and this created a logistical challenge for the operation to adequately utilize their volunteer base.
