Fighting Hunger. Feeding Hope.

Food insecurity is defined by the United States Department of Agriculture as the limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe foods. It is a condition of not having access to sufficient food or food of an adequate quality to live a healthy life. To learn more about food insecurity throughout the nation, Feeding America has an interactive map on their website. The Map the Meal Gap shows that food insecurity exists in every county and congressional district in the U.S.


Montgomery County Food Bank envisions a community where everyone has access to sufficient, nutritious food. Their mission is to unite the community to fight hunger. Did you know one in four children are food insecure in Montgomery County?


Each month, Montgomery County Food Bank serves children, seniors, and families in our area. In 2022, the food bank was able to serve an average of 65,000+ individuals each month. This was an increase of nearly 10,000 individuals monthly compared to 2021.


Astonishingly, the Montgomery County Food Bank worked collaboratively with a vast network of partners including other pantries and local school districts to serve over 10 million meals to our neighbors in need in 2022!


Every $1 raised provides up to 4 meals for those facing hunger in Montgomery County!


At their recent 2023 Fighting Hunger, Feeding Hope Gala, the Montgomery County Food Bank raised over $585,000 which will provide up to 2.3 million meals for our neighbors in need of food assistance.


To continue to raise funds to combat hunger in Montgomery County, the food bank is hosting a 5K Trail Run and community event. The “Outrun Hunger” will be held at The Lake House at Grand Central Park in Conroe on Sunday, May 7, 2023, starting at noon. All ages and experience levels are encouraged to attend this family-friendly event for live music, kid-friendly summer activities, a splash zone, vendors, food trucks, and more!

By donating food and contributing money, you can help to ensure that those in need have access to the nutrition they need to survive. This can help to reduce poverty and can also help to improve the overall quality of life in the community. 

Vogt Engineering Celebrates National Bike Month

By Tiffany Marascio • May 17, 2024
May is National Bike Month, but Vogt Engineering celebrates and encourages biking all year. Our team enjoys using our office bikes to get out and experience nature, taking advantage of our central location in The Woodlands Town Center. About National Bike Month National Bike Month, after many previous iterations, was officially established in 1956. Today, National Bike Month is sponsored by the League of American Bicyclists , which incorporates accessible ways to start biking by hosting smaller experiences such as National Bike to Work Week (usually held the third week of May), and Bike to Work Day (usually that Friday). Health Benefits According to the Harvard School of Public Health , biking can help “improve mental health by lowering stress levels and stimulating feel-good endorphins.” Other health benefits include: improved cardiovascular fitness stronger muscles greater coordination and general mobility reduced body fat Vogt's Commitment to our Team and the Environment One of Vogt Engineering’s major considerations when looking for an office was easily accessible trails for riding bikes and walking. We are fortunate to have found a great place to be with our great team of people. Not only is biking and being outdoors good for mental and physical health, but we value working with the environment in everything we do. Although many civil engineering projects require earth movement, Vogt is committed to finding solutions that complement the natural surroundings of the site. Get Involved There are many local entities that organize Bike Month events, including The Woodlands, Harris County Precinct 3 (at Burroughs Park), and more.
