It’s the credit union way to serve the underserved in our community. That’s why Harris County Federal Credit Union is hosting a food drive to benefit the Houston Food Bank. This year we are looking to surpass the previous year in total pounds donated. If we are going to do this, we will need your help! You can help by donating items from the “most needed” list to HCFCU’s holiday food drive, or by giving funds to help the Houston Food Bank. We’re offering members who donate a chance to win some cash, which will be determined by the total weight donated at the end of the period. Donations are being accepted between October 31st and November 30th. Drawing winner will be contacted the first week of December and all members will be notified of the total donation amount.
Members can drop off their donation and pick up a ticket* for a chance to win! Prize money is based on grand total donation weight.
1. >100 lbs $10 gift card

The food bank can provide many nutritious meals to people in need, just $1 donated equals 3 meals for someone in need. There is no limit to the amount of items donated and staff will also participate by donating items and volunteering time. Drop your non-perishable food items off to the front desk and become a hero to the thousands of people in Southeast Texas who struggle daily with where their next meal will come from.
