Brotherly Love for Texas: Good Day helps provide more than 167K meals to Texans in need
PHILADELPHIA - Our Good Day Philadelphia family showed their Brotherly Love for Texas this morning as viewers helped provide more than 100,000 meals through the North Texas Food Bank!
As you may know, FOX 29' Alex Holley is from the Dallas area, and her family is one of many impacted by the crisis across the state in the wake of a winter storm.
FOX 29 decided to help those in need by showing our Philly love to the North Texas Food Bank from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday morning.
By 10 a.m., Good Day Philadelphia viewers donated enough money to provide 167,100 to Texans in need!
The North Texas Food Bank has been working to close the hunger gap in the region by providing access to nutritious food. According to their website, every dollar donated to North Texas Food Bank provides access to healthy meals for North Texans, and 95% of every dollar goes directly to hunger relief programs.
