The local impact
Texas ranks second in the U.S. for food insecurity, and one in four children in Central Texas doesn’t know where their next meal is coming from, according to its website.
Contributions from the Austin Restaurant Weeks event will go directly to feeding food-insecure individuals across 21 Central Texas counties.
