Abundant Harvest Gains Prestigious Award from Montgomery County Food Bank

Abundant Harvest at St. Isidore, Spring, gained the “Partner Agency of the Year Award” from the Montgomery County Food Bank in April 2022 at the food bank’s gala.

Abundant Harvest is one of 70 partner agencies which assist the Montgomery County Food Bank. The award received by St. Isidore honors one partner agency for its unwavering and outstanding work in the fight against hunger.

According to the award description provided by the Montgomery County Food Bank, the Abundant Harvest Kitchen provided critical services in 2021 during the pandemic and the unprecedented power outages during the winter storm:

“Abundant Harvest Kitchen held weekly mobile food distributions at its location after business hours to ensure those in need were able to receive food even after its food pantry closed. It also went above and beyond its scope by hosting additional mobile distributions at another site in the county to provide much needed food assistance to an underserved area. The organization’s passion for serving the community is evident in its desire to expand its reach and provide food assistance to their clients in a dignified and humble manner. Abundant Harvest Kitchen also partnered with the Food Bank to provide home-cooked meals to the National Guard troops stationed at the Food Bank.”

The fundraiser gala gathered proceeds to benefit thousands of food insecure children, families and seniors it serves. The gala was presented by Woodforest National Bank, and its platinum sponsors were Kroger and Huntsman Corporation. The gala was not held in 2020 or 2021 due to the pandemic.

The local food bank is a nonprofit, hunger relief organization dedicated to uniting the community to fight hunger. It partners with the Houston Food Bank; it is a member of Feeding Texas and a distribution partner of Feeding America.
