We're starting with a developing story that affects millions across Texas. A government shutdown is creating immediate hardship for families who depend on food assistance. Federal judges ruled Friday that the White House must use contingency funds to keep SNAP benefits flowing, but there are serious delays expected. Three point five million Texans rely on SNAP each month, with eighty million dollars of that monthly support coming right here to North Texas alone. The North Texas Food Bank tells us they're bracing for a surge in need, and they're warning families they may face tough choices between groceries and rent in the coming days. Food banks across Fort Worth are ready to help. The Community Food Bank on Galvez Avenue is open Monday through Thursday from nine in the morning to one in the afternoon. WestAid's food pantry on Camp Bowie West is also available Monday through Thursday, nine thirty to two thirty, with Friday hours from nine thirty to noon.
On a more positive note, some new businesses are coming to our region. Irving is getting a new health and wellness clinic that opens Monday, November third, at eighty two hundred North MacArthur Boulevard. They're offering fifty percent off wellness and aesthetic services through early January. And just south of us in Buda, a new Chick-fil-A is opening Thursday, November sixth, bringing another dining option to that growing community.
Here in Fort Worth, entrepreneurs and innovators have plenty to celebrate this month. The city is hosting several big events during Global Entrepreneurship Week. CreateFW is holding a grand opening for their reimagined space on Bryan Avenue on November seventeenth at four thirty in the evening, and they're also unveiling the inaugural Funkytown Founder Awards that night. It's a chance to recognize the people powering Fort Worth's startup ecosystem. If you're interested in innovation and tech, the Plug and Play Frisco Batch Four Expo is happening Wednesday, November fifth, at the Comerica Center in Frisco from four to nine in the evening, showcasing some incredible work in fintech and sports technology.
Sports fans, high school volleyball playoffs wrapped up yesterday with several North Texas teams advancing. Springtown dominated Fort Worth Eastern Hills, and Decatur defeated Fort Worth Southwest in dominant fashion. Both teams move forward in the UIL playoffs.
Before we wrap up, a reminder that if you need community resources or want to stay connected with what's happening around Fort Worth, the city has plenty of upcoming events listed on the Visit Fort Worth website.
