Thomas J. Henry’s statewide campaign combats food insecurity
with record-breaking support for Texas families
Injury attorney and philanthropist Thomas J. Henry is proud to announce the second annual Feast of Texas, an expanded statewide initiative designed to bring hope, nourishment, and holiday joy to families across Texas.
After the remarkable impact of the inaugural Feast of Texas in 2024, providing more than 3.5 million meals statewide, Thomas J. Henry is continuing the effort this year to ensure Texas families once again experience the comfort and dignity of a shared holiday meal. According to a recent study by the Sage Policy Group, Thomas J. Henry’s philanthropic initiatives have already generated more than $200 million in total economic impact, further underscoring his long-standing commitment to uplifting communities.
What is the Feast of Texas?
During the holiday season, many Texans face the very real challenge of putting a warm meal on the table. This year, that challenge has only deepened as the ongoing government shutdown temporarily halts SNAP benefits. Thomas J. Henry firmly believes that no Texan should go hungry, and through the Feast of Texas, he is turning that belief into action.
By collaborating with an array of trusted local food banks and community partners throughout Texas, the initiative will provide complete holiday meals (or equivalent meal-distributions) to families experiencing food insecurity.
“The holidays are a time for family and gratitude, but we know that for far too many Texans, the season can bring hardship rather than comfort,” said Thomas J. Henry. “With this second annual Feast of Texas, we’re renewing our commitment to ensuring that every family, whether in the big city or a remote rural county, has a reason to feel cared for and connected.”
