June food drive a success

Jun 03, 2004 at 07:00 PM

The Texans teamed up with Christian Alliance to spearhead a three-day city-wide food drive to supply food for the Star of Hope's three Houston missions that feed between 800-1,000 men, women and children daily.

The Christian Alliance came through with flying colors, providing 6,000 lbs. of food to the Star of Hope pantry. Texans general manager Charley Casserly and two Texans players also helped kick off the drive in the parking lot of Reliant Stadium where donations of non-perishable food items were being collected to supply the Star of Hope mission pantries.

Thanks to all of those who donated nourishment to such an important facility in Houston!
