Next Level Medical Launches Multi-City Food Drive to Support Texas Families

Donations Accepted at All Locations in Houston, Beaumont, Austin, and San Antonio

HOUSTON, Nov. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Level Medical announced today a multi-city food drive to support Texas families experiencing rising food insecurity. Many households across the state have faced delayed or reduced food assistance this fall, increasing strain on families already managing high grocery costs and limited access to nutritious food. From November 30 through December 13, all Next Level Urgent Care clinics across Houston, Beaumont, Austin, and San Antonio will serve as donation drop-off locations for a variety of shelf-stable food items.

"Our clinics see firsthand how financial and food-access challenges affect the health of our communities," said Dr. Juliet Breeze, CEO and Founder of Next Level Medical. "This food drive is one way we can step in and support families who may be struggling this season."

Houston & Beaumont: Supporting Kids' Meals

In the Houston and Beaumont regions, Next Level Medical is partnering with Kids' Meals, a nonprofit that delivers free, healthy meals directly to the homes of children facing food insecurity.

Requested items include:

• Whole-grain cereal (bags or boxes)
• Dried fruit
• Nuts

These items help support the daily preparation of nutritious meals for the more than 11,000 preschoolers - and their older siblings during school breaks - that Kids' Meals serves. Beyond meals, Kids' Meals connects families with vital services and support to help break the cycle of poverty.

Austin: Supporting Hutto Resource Center

Austin-area clinics will collect donations for the Hutto Resource Center, which provides food and essential items to families in need.

Most-needed items include:

• Canned proteins (tuna, chicken, ham/spam, beef)
• Canned soups
• Breakfast items such as cereal and oatmeal
• Feminine Hygiene Products
• Dry dog/cat food
