Frequently Asked Questions
This year, the San Antonio Food Bank is proud to introduce its inaugural San Antonio Food Bank Restaurant Weeks, an exciting initiative aimed at supporting our Summer Meals for Kids program.
Local restaurants, both new and existing partners, will feature special menu items using produce from the San Antonio Food Bank’s Urban Farm. Proceeds from each sale helps provide meals for children in need.
San Antonio Food Bank Restaurant Weeks runs from June 7 – June 21, 2025.
For Restaurants
Additionally, participating restaurants will be required to purchase produce from the San Antonio Food Bank’s urban farm, sourced through a local vendor. This produce must be incorporated into the featured dish, and $1 from each sale will be donated back to the Food Bank, providing seven meals to families and individuals in need.
To support participation, restaurants will receive marketing and promotional materials to display within their establishments and share across social media platforms and websites, helping to raise awareness of the event.
Restaurants can register online at safoodbank.org/restaurant-weeks/register/.
Upon registration and agreement to the terms, you will receive a confirmation from a SAFB staff member along with additional details. The San Antonio Food Bank will host two separate virtual information sessions prior to the event for registered restaurants or those interested in participating, offering an overview of the event.
