SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) – The Baptist Health Foundation has awarded $500,000 and the Spirit of Health Award to a local organization that feeds 120,000 area residents every week.
“We look forward to entering this holiday season with an expression of thanks to our community for their resilience and to God for carrying us through this challenging year,” said Cody Knowlton, President and CEO of the Baptist Health Foundation of San Antonio.
The money will be used to expand the Food Bank’s electronic referral system, which will allow physicians to refer patients with food insecurities to the organization in a more expeditious manner.
