Volunteers Serve 1000 Families at East Texas Food Bank Event

KTRE News covers the East Texas Food Bank Holiday Food Distribution Event sponsored by Mike Love & Associates, LLC at the Angelina County Exposition Center on Dec. 1, 2025.

Once again, a huge thank you to KTRE-TV for their continuing coverage of yesterday's East Texas Food Bank Holiday Mobile Distribution Event in Lufkin, TX! This effort would not have been possible without the support of every outstanding volunteer who worked through the rain and cold to serve over 1,000 Angelina County families. An extra special thanks to reporter Vanessa Johnson, who stayed with us and endured the elements for hours to share the story.

Original Facebook Post from the East Texas Food Bank on December 1, 2025:
