About End Hunger Network
Founded nearly twenty years ago, End Hunger Network is a private nonprofit organization that operates two hunger-relief programs, Food Loop and Red Barrel. EHN programs remove the barriers-lack of transportation, marketing, and expertise-that prevent Houston from using available food resources. Food Loop recovers surplus perishable food from food-industry donors and Red Barrel places red barrels in grocery stores across the city for customers to fill with purchased and donated nonperishable foods. Through persistence and hard work, the amount of food EHN provides each year has steadily increased to more than 2 million pounds, with an annual economic value of over $2.5 million.
