Our Community Giving Partner
Race together. Give together.
The Texas City Triathlon is joining athletes, volunteers, and supporters to help the Galveston County Food Bank fight hunger across the county. Donate during registration, bring food on race weekend, or give directly to the food bank.
Why It Matters
A little goes a long way.
Local support gives the food bank more power to put nutritious food into the hands of neighbors who need it.
Galveston County residents face food insecurity, according to the Galveston County Food Bank.
The food bank reports that its purchasing power can provide four meals for every dollar donated.
