Food for All in Pflugerville: A Lifeline for Families Amidst Rising Hunger

Food for All, a nonprofit pantry, collects leftover food from local businesses and serves free meals to over 131,000 people annually. The pantry, started by the Fletchers after the 2021 winter freeze, has seen a surge in demand due to COVID-19 and rising food prices. Despite stereotypes, many clients are employed or job-hunting. Volunteers, often former clients, provide meals and sometimes extra items like toys or flowers. The pantry offers a lifeline to families struggling with hunger in Austin.
