Share Your Christmas Food Drive

🎄 Join the 38th Annual Share Your Christmas Food Drive! 🎁

We’re teaming up with our friends at KIII-TV to make the holidays brighter for our neighbors in need! Mark your calendar and join us on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, from 5 AM to 6 PM at:

  • Coastal Bend Food Bank – 5442 Bear Lane

  • KIII-TV Studios – 5002 S. Padre Island Drive

Together, we can fight hunger and spread holiday cheer by collecting non-perishable food items for families in our community.

We are thrilled to invite all schools across our eleven-county service area to participate. This is a wonderful opportunity for students, teachers, and staff to work together to make a meaningful impact on families in need during the holiday season.

Win Grand Prizes for Your School!

Three generous donors will award three Grand Prizes of $800 each to the top-performing schools in the following categories:

These funds can be used to support school programs, activities, or special projects.
