East Texas Food Bank

The East Texas Food Bank is working with its more than 200 partners to provide emergency food assistance during COVID-19, otherwise known as coronavirus.

In partnership with Tyler Independent School District, which is serving free curb-side meals to students during the Community Mitigation Period through March 20, ETFB will be distributing free emergency food assistance boxes. 

The emergency food boxes will be distributed by ETFB staff, with support of Mentoring Alliance volunteers. As cars arrive on-site to receive curb-side meals from select TISD schools, each household will also receive a box of non-perishable food items and (pending availability) produce items.

During March 16-20, in coordination with the TISD curb-side meals, the ETFB food box distribution schedule is as follows:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Boulter, Caldwell and Griffin Elementary Schools.

Tuesday, Thursday, Friday: 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Hubbard, Moore and Three Lakes Middle Schools.
