H-E-B Feast of Sharing is a series of festive gatherings that serve more than 340,000 meals at 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. Launched in 1989, H-E-B Feast of Sharing gives the company an opportunity to give thanks to its loyal customers and invites everyone to our holiday dinner table. 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.
This 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. Since 1982, the year the program was founded, H-E-B has donated more than 1 billion pounds of food to 5,500 non-profit organizations in Texas and Mexico.

✨ STAFF SPOTLIGHT: Meet Kat Hill! ✨

Get to know Kathryn (Kat) Hill, our dedicated Mission Coordinator here at the Extraco Events Center! With us for over a year, Kat's role shifts daily—from supporting the HOT Scholarship Fund to handling key administrative tasks. She’s known for being a team player, always ready to lend a hand where it's needed most.

Hometown & Education: A proud Waco native and Clifton High School grad, Kat went on to earn her Bachelor’s in Ag Services and Development (with a Horticulture minor!) from Tarleton State University. 💜

Outside the Office: When she’s not at the Extraco Events Center, Kat loves spending time with family and friends, traveling, and diving into a good book. You’ll also catch her at her favorite restaurant, Tres Hermanos!

Fun Facts:
Favorite Holiday: Loves fall holidays, especially Thanksgiving! 🍂🦃
Adventure Ready: Given the choice, she’d go scuba diving—just as long as there are no sharks—or skydiving!
Next time you see Kat, be sure to say "Hi!" 👋
