MISSION The mission of Harvest Regional Food Bank is to alleviate hunger in Southwest Arkansas and Northeast Texas, through food distribution, education and advocacy. Harvest distributes much needed food to over 85 pantries, soup kitchens and shelters, as well as school and senior care programs. The food bank’s backpack food for kids and student pantries reach over 1,000 hungry children each week, while the college pantry program reaches thousands of non-traditional students and their families. Harvest also distributes food directly to rural, food-insecure families through its Mobile Pantry, and reaches older adults with senior-friendly food, delivered to senior centers and delivery programs. Over the past year, Harvest has provided over six million pounds of food to children, adults and seniors struggling with hunger.

FUNDRAISERS & EVENTS The inaugral Drive Out Hunger Golf Tournament was a great success, and returns for a second year, May 16, 2022 at Northridge Country Club. Sponsorships and volunteer opportunities are available. Harvest also looks forward to bringing Wine & Jazz and Taste of Texarkana back to the community in 2022. GIVING OPPORTUNITIES Harvest relies on the generous support of our community to provide hunger relief to thousands of food insecure neighbors in our community. Every dollar received by the food bank provides 5.5 meals to someone in need, and a gift of $100 sponsors a child on the Backpack Food Program for an entire school year.

MISSION The Haven Homes mission is to bring restoration to broken people through grace-based discipleship and to reach those in pain from addiction, and through God’s grace, help these individuals receive love, joy, hope and healing.
