Location:

The San Antonio Food Bank's primary focus is regional, serving a 29-county area in Southwest Texas. While it is part of the Feeding America national network of food banks, its direct operations and services are concentrated within this specific Texan region. It does not have an international or global operational presence in terms of food distribution, but its impact contributes to the broader, global fight against hunger through its dedicated local efforts and adherence to best practices in food banking.
