The El Pasosoans Fighting Hunger Food Bank just added a new distribution site at Fort Bliss.

As the pandemic continues the El Pasoans Fighting Hunger Food Bank continues to see a high demand for food as families and individuals struggle with hunger. Since mid-March, the local food bank has distributed over 263,000 food boxes at all 5 major distribution sites and several mobile sites per week scattered across the city.

As the demand grows, a new mobile pantry drive-thru distribution site has been added to Fort Bliss in conjunction with the El Paso Armed Services YMCA.
