Celebrate Fiesta With The Food Bank

The San Antonio Food Bank is proud to release not one, but two medals for Fiesta® San Antonio this year.

Dive into tradition with our first medal, a vibrant emblem that pays homage to the San Antonio Food Bank’s rich culinary heritage – celebrating the flavors, diversity, and community spirit that define our longstanding commitment to fighting hunger.

Medals can be purchased for $10 at the San Antonio Food Bank Volunteer Lobby | 5200 Historic Old Hwy 90, San Antonio, TX 78227

In a unique twist this year, we proudly introduce a second medal, a symbol of honor and recognition. This special edition commemorates our President & CEO, Eric Cooper’s role as the Grand Marshal for the Battle of Flowers Parade.

These limited edition medals will be handed out by Eric Cooper at select appearances of the Battle Of Flowers Traveling Float.

Fiesta on The Fairway

Monday, April 22

This year, we’re bringing fiesta flair to the fairway as Doing Good on the Green continues its 3-year journey towards becoming an official Fiesta San Antonio event. Join us for a day of golfing excellence on two stunning 18-hole championship courses at The Club at Sonterra. Together, we’ll raise vital funds for the San Antonio Food Bank and the New Braunfels Food Bank, with every $1 generated providing 7 meals for families and individuals in need throughout Southwest Texas.
