In 2021, Caritas provided assistance to 27,201 households and distributed 5.2 million pounds of food. On average, every family that visits our drive-thru pantry service receives 130 pounds of nutritious food.
It also takes more than food to fight hunger, and Caritas offers a variety of programs to help meet those needs. The majority of our clients are residents of Waco-McLennan County, although there are no geographical limits to receiving services from Caritas.
