Connecting Hutto Community Members in need with resources that can help. 

OUR MISSION
The Hutto Resource Center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing resources that improve the well-being of individuals in the Hutto community and help them in their daily living.

Our goal is to offer services through collaborative partnerships that promote independence, so our clients can move toward economic self-sufficiency, live abundantly, and be contributing members who give back to their community.

HISTORY OF ORGANIZATIONS

In 2018, Hutto Has Heart and the Hutto Community Food Pantry joined forces to become the Hutto Resource Center.  We believe together we are better and can help more people. 

Hutto Has Heart

Hutto Community Food Pantry

Hutto Has Heart had its beginnings in the fall of 2011 when the Bastrop fires erupted. Many caring Hutto residents came forward, contributing an abundance of supplies for those directly impacted and a local business with a delivery truck made numerous trips between Hutto and Bastrop. The outpouring of support was tremendous and city leaders recognized the huge heart of this community.
 
Since then, assistance has been provided to many families through requests for help that have included car repairs, assistance with medical and utility bills, dental work, gas money, food, handy-man repairs, clothing, yard work and much more. 

In 2015, the community again showed its heart as they provided support for those impacted by area flooding and as they gave to the Kelley Family Fund that was established when Hutto’s Sgt. Kelley lost his life in the line of duty.
 

​

​The Hutto Community Food Pantry is a volunteer driven, multi-sponsored and staffed pantry that began in 1998 when several members of the Hutto Lutheran Church began handing out one or two bags of food to Hutto residents in need.

In the fall of 2009, HCFP went from being open only during church office hours to opening once a month, serving between 8-12 families. Each family who came in received a prepared bag of food containing 12 basic items and toiletries.

In 2013, HCFP partnered with the Central Texas Food Bank and became an Outside Agency Funded Partner with the City of Hutto to assist with continuing growth. Two years later, HCFP moved from a "prepared box" model to a "client choice" distribution model. Families were now allowed to come weekly, and an average of 60-75 families were served -- a 2789% increase since 2009!

Now open every Saturday from 9am-noon, HCFP serves an average of 70 to 85 families every week.
