With the start of a new season the weather changes, flowers bloom, and the sun comes out. However, as the seasons change one thing will stay constant – elections.

Vote!May will bring a joint election. Does this sound new to you? Many believe that March and November are the only times we form part of the electoral process. The Joint Election on May 3rd will allow YOU to cast your ballot that will determine who will represent you in various levels of government.

At the Houston Food Bank, your vote matters to us. To help make our vision of “a world that doesn’t need food banks” a reality, we must vote. By casting your vote, you do more than just express an opinion; you actively shape the kind of government that will stand with us in our mission. Voting is how we ensure our leaders reflect our values and priorities, and it’s how we initiate the changes needed to transform our community for the better. It’s important to recognize that voting isn’t just every four years; it’s an ongoing chance to have a say on what matters to you. We encourage you to actively participate in this process and be an integral part of shaping the future.
