Each event is filled with music\, activities for the family and a variety of free services such as health and wellness screenings and flu vaccinations. Some gatherings even get a visit from Santa. Additionally\, in select cities\, H-E-B Partners (employees) and other volunteers will deliver holiday meals to homebound seniors and others who are unable to attend the event. This year\, H-E-B will launch an H-E-B Feast of Sharing event in Houston\, where it will hold a drive-thru meal distribution with plans to give out more than 20\,000 meals. \nThe H-E-B Feast of Sharing is a series of festive gatherings that include more than 340\,000 meals served during 34 dinners throughout Texas and Mexico. Filled with food\, music\, and good cheer\, these free holiday feasts are open to the public and bring together family\, friends and neighbors.

In the more than three decades H-E-B has held the celebrations\, more than 375\,000 volunteers have helped serve nearly four million meals. \nThis initiative is an important part of H-E-B’s Hunger Relief Program\, which works year-round to prevent hunger. Last year\, H-E-B’s Hunger Relief Program donated 34 million pounds of food to families in need.
