A Legacy of Giving Since its inception in 1989, the Feast of Sharing has blossomed into a tradition that extends far beyond Houston, with events held in more than 34 cities across Texas and Mexico. Over the years, H-E-B has served over 250,000 meals annually, thanks to the tireless efforts of more than 375,000 volunteers. Together, they’ve helped provide nearly 4 million meals—a testament to H-E-B’s unwavering commitment to combating hunger and fostering community connections. This initiative is more than just a holiday meal; it’s part of H-E-B’s year-round Hunger Relief Program, which donated an astounding 33 million pounds of food to families in need last year alone. Since 1982, the program has distributed over one billion pounds of food to 5,500 non-profit organizations in Texas and Mexico, cementing H-E-B’s role as a leader in the fight against food insecurity. Join the Celebration Whether you’re receiving a meal or simply lending your voice to the celebration, the Feast of Sharing is a beautiful reminder of the power of community. Media representatives are encouraged to join the festivities and capture the sights, sounds, and stories of this monumental event, which highlights the best of Houston’s giving spirit.
