This federal Formula Grant award of $7,047,395.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service under the Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) Administrative Costs program (CFDA 10.568). The grant funding supports the storage, handling, and distribution of USDA commodity foods to supplement the diets of low-income individuals through state-level agencies and local non-profit organizations. As the prime grantee, the Texas Department of Agriculture will use this funding to cover administrative expenses associated with collecting and distributing food resources to food banks, soup kitchens, and emergency shelters across the state. The Texas Department of Agriculture will sub-award portions of the funding to local non-profit food assistance organizations, such as the West Texas Food Bank, Food Bank of the Rio Grande Valley, South Texas Food Bank, and others, to enhance their food distribution capabilities and reach vulnerable populations.
