organizations that provide food and services to families in need throughout Hays County. Included are HaysHope2Go (a program of the Hays CISD), Hays County Food Bank and the San Marcos Youth Council.


“The program is a win, win for everyone in Hays County,” said Julie Snyder, CEO of the Kyle Area Chamber of Commerce. “Restaurants are generating meals for nonprofits struggling to keep up with demand while driving
