Together, We Fed 5, Even More: A Season of Impact with Jalen Pitre

This year, our community came together in an extraordinary way to support Houston’s youngest and hungriest children. Through the Feed 5 Even More campaign, Kids’ Meals partnered with Houston Texans safety Jalen Pitre, the Pitreboyz Foundation, and Group 1 Automotive to turn game-day moments into life-changing impact.

For three years now, Jalen has lent his name and his heart to Kids’ Meals. And this year’s campaign and the incredible support behind it reminded us once again of what’s possible when a city shows up for its children.

Throughout the 2025 season, Jalen pledged to donate $250 for every turnover and $100 for every sack made by the Texans defense, a commitment that turned on-field success into healthy meals for children who rely on Kids’ Meals.

Between the Texans’ performance and generosity from community members starting at just $10, Jalen led the charge to raise over $14,000 for Kids’ Meals and the Pitreboyz Foundation. His leadership on and off the field sparked a season of momentum and purpose.

Powered by Partnership

This work is made possible by partners who believe deeply in our mission. We are grateful for Group 1 Automotive, whose continued commitment helped amplify every donation and inspire even greater community involvement.

Additionally, not only did donations fuel our meal delivery program, but they also supported the Pitreboyz Foundation and its commitment to building brighter futures through mentorship, sports, and education.

Houston, you showed up. And because of you, local children received nourishing meals delivered right to their doorsteps during a season when stability matters most. Hope traveled across 56 zip codes this season, reaching preschoolers who depend on Kids’ Meals for consistent nutrition and care.

We are deeply grateful, and we can’t wait to continue this inspiring work with you.
