Executive Director Update

2025 marked a year of stability, strategic growth, and renewed momentum for DF2FM!

We expanded our network by adding three new distribution partners, welcoming one new Home, Not Alone (HNA) partner, and reinstating one previous HNA partner, ending the year with 23 pantry partners and 13 HNA partners serving communities across North Texas.

After several financially challenging years, we are proud to have ended 2025 not only in the positive, but as our strongest financial year to date! This achievement reflects thoughtful financial planning, strategic initiatives from our Board of Directors, and careful expense management by our staff.

We were also honored to receive grant funding that will allow our two part-time staff members to transition into full-time roles, strengthening our capacity to serve.

2026 is already off to a strong start, with new distribution partners onboard and exciting partnerships on the horizon. As we grow, we remain committed to expanding thoughtfully, ensuring every new partnership is sustainable and strengthens our ability to keep pets and families together.

Thank you for helping us get to where we are today!

Sincerely,

Maria Koegl
Executive Director
