I volunteered with my church group. I’m so thankful for this opportunity to give back to my community. It serves 27 East Texas counties to provide essential nutrition. 1 in 6 people go hungry, and 2 in 4 children go hungry every day in USA. Please, donate or volunteer.

Easy in and out. Call number on fence after parking outside gate B and after gate C. No lumper fee fast unload. I was a day late from Washington and they took the Apple load today still. BBQ place just up street and within walking distance of here. DO NOT PARK ON ROBERTSON OVERNIGHT OR BEFORE DELIVERY. It's a no parking zone.

It’s great giving back to the community but a truck driver needing to use the restroom is not allowed. You should really treat drivers with kindness and compassion. We are out here on for hours trying to deliver goods and services on time. Please take time to reflect on this.

Due to being disabled I have been coming to this food bank for assistance since they opened. I've always had a good experience here until today!!!! The first thing a lady volunteer accused me of taking more than the 6 items allowed from that self. She snatched my shopping bag open and counted my items. Didn't bother to apologize to me. Today, they had water melons. I wanted one but couldn't get it because I AM DISABLED. The lady assisting me asked a young man to get me one. He said he couldn't because he, too, was disabled. Then he made a joke out of my disability, telling me he was just kidding about being disabled. Usually, you can get what you want on potatoes , onions, etc. Not today. I got yelled at and told to put them back. I cried all the way home. Next week, I am going to Walmart and getting bologna and cheese to eat for the week. They don't make fun of disabled people.

Very nice people, but to my misfortune there were issues calling for the door assignment. I worked with AT&T to facilitate getting it resolved. Something happened during hurricane Beryl that knocked their phones out. Once I spoke with Greg he had a girl directing us to doors immediately. I saw teamwork in action. I experienced no significant delay as a result of the outage.
