MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas -- Tis' the season to give back and H-E-B did just that when they graciously donated 2,560 turkeys to the Montgomery County Food Bank (MCFB) to distribute to those in need during the holidays.

H-E-B is committed to supporting our communities and helping families in need with the necessary resources to avoid hunger so they can enjoy the holiday season,” said Winell Herron, H-E-B Group Vice President of Public Affairs, Diversity and Environmental Affairs.

“Helping in the fight against hunger is a constant mission of ours, knowing that we have partners like H-E-B makes the impact that much stronger,” said Allison Hulett, Montgomery County Food Bank President and CEO. “These actions continue H-E-B’s 113-year legacy of contributing to worthy causes throughout the great state of Texas.
