Houston Food Bank CEO Brian Greene said the demand is still almost double the amount compared to this time last year.
It has slightly decreased since a surge this spring where volunteers were distributing a million pounds of food a day.

"During September, it works out to a little over 800,000 pounds a day. That's what our distribution is," explained Greene. "800,000 compares to 450,000 pounds a day, which is where we were right before COVID-19 hit."
