The organization's goal is to distribute 92 million nutritious meals annually by 2025. “We need 92 million meals today if we could get it,” Anurag Jain, NTFB board vice chair said at today’s ground breaking. NTFB distributes 190,000 meals per day, but the need is 250,000 meals per day, said Simon Powell, NTFB interim president and CEO. Today’s groundbreaking also marks the kick-off of a $55 million campaign: Stop Hunger Build Hope. As of today, over $40 million has been donated to the campaign. In addition to the soon-to-be Plano distribution center, NTFB has a distribution center in Dallas at 4500 S. Cockrell Hill Road. A spokesperson for the NTFB said the Dallas center will remain; however, its functions and roles may change.
