Team Up to Fight Hunger was the brainchild of Lon Ricker of Ricker Dynamics and Jason Greiner of the Wylie EDC.
Team Up to Fight Hunger is a collaboration of Wylie, Sachse and Murphy community partners that came together during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic to promote and support local restaurants and workers while providing food to individuals and families through the local food pantries. Since pantries were having a hard time getting provisions and the need was increasing, we partnered with the restaurants, who were also struggling for business.
More than 900 families received hot, hearty and fresh restaurant meals thanks to donors to Team Up to Fight Hunger!
Moreover, nearly $25,000 in donations were paid out to 13 local area restaurants to feed these families in need.
People fed, local businesses supported, a real win-win!
Please look at our Restaurants page and support these local establishments when dining.
Please check out our Partners page and let them know how much you appreciate their support of the community.
