Facing hunger is stressful. Constantly worrying about where your next meal will come from can cause mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, and even Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
The ongoing federal shutdown and upcoming SNAP benefits pause has left thousands of families in our Frisco and North Texas communities without income or food assistance. Especially with the holidays right around the corner, our friends, neighbors, coworkers, and loved ones shouldn’t have to stress over putting food on their table.
New Perspective Counseling Services will be hosting a food drive from now until Friday, November 21 benefitting the Frisco Family Services Food Market. Urgently needed items include cereal, cooking oils, canned fruits, fruit cups, meal helpers (Hamburger Helper, Mac&Cheese), assorted baking mixes, canned soups, canned meats, flour, sugar, pasta, pasta sauce, and laundry detergent. Donations can be placed in the box in the NPCS waiting room (9555 Lebanon Road, STE 602). Any questions about the food drive can be directed to our Practice Manager, Sydney Dewey, at dewey@npcs.com.
We thank everyone in advance for any donations made to the food drive - your kindness is helping keep our local Frisco families fed🤍
