FEEDING AMERICA
Job Title: Chief Supply Chain Officer
Location: Houston, TX
Posted July 9, 2025
As the nation’s largest nonprofit and domestic hunger-relief organization, Feeding America is at the forefront of the fight to end hunger. With an annual revenue of $5.15 billion (2023), which includes 4.7 billion pounds of donated food, Feeding America engages our country and communities in the fight to end hunger on an unprecedented scale, serving as a catalyst at both the national and local levels, reaching every county in the United States. The work is not just about providing meals. On the journey to achieving its mission, Feeding America addresses barriers so everyone can thrive. Specifically, Feeding America’s strategy includes:
  1. Improve neighbor access to and experience with the charitable food system
  2. Enhance sourcing and sharing of neighbor-preferred food
  3. Expand policy advocacy to increase access to resources and address the root causes of hunger
  4. Increase holistic support available to neighbors in areas including health, economic mobility, and housing
  5. Transform measurement and data through collective opportunities in data sharing and technology tools across the Feeding America network
A People-Centered Approach: Through it all, Feeding America keeps the neighbors it serves at the center of its vision of a hunger-free America. Feeding America is deeply committed to meeting the unique nutritional and health needs of individuals and their communities by leveraging an approach that is people-centered, responsive, and adaptive. The Network: The organization is a nationwide network of over 200 food banks, regional cooperatives, and partner state associations which distribute food through 60,000 partner food pantries and meals programs. Together, the Feeding America network provides more than 5 billion meals to tens of millions of people across the United States and supports programs that improve food security for the families they serve. Rising Demand: In a country that wastes billions of pounds of food each year, it is shocking that almost anyone in America goes hungry. Yet, there are 44 million people who don’t have enough to eat – that is 1 in 7 individuals, and 44 million too many. Each year, more than 13 million children (that is 1 in 5) and 5.5 million seniors struggle with hunger. In 2020, the COVID crisis devastated individuals and families and food insecurity grew. The average increase in the number of clients reported by food banks grew by an astounding 60%. Since then – driven by record inflation, historically high food costs, reduced federal assistance, and other factors – demand has continued to grow. Through it all, Feeding America and its partners have continued the march to solve hunger, moving quickly and decisively to implement multi-prong strategies that include new systems, distribution, and supply chain, and leveraging and expanding partnerships.
