HungerMitao, a Texas-based community service organization, has received a one million–meal contribution from Twisted X Global Brands, the firm behind popular footwear brands.
The donation made to HungerMitao’s ‘Million Meals Program’ marks one of the largest single boosts to North Texas hunger relief efforts this year.

HungerMitao said the donation directly strengthens emergency food distribution at a time when need continues to climb, driven by inflation, layoffs, federal program delays, and the now-ended government shutdown.
"This contribution is a powerful testament to the compassion of our community," said Raj Asava, founder of HungerMitao. "At a moment when hunger is growing, Twisted X has stepped forward to help thousands of families across North Texas."
Prasad Reddy, CEO of Twisted X, said the company viewed the donation as a responsibility to the region. "Compassion is one of our highest priorities at Twisted X, and I feel we have a responsibility as a business and as humans to help our local community in times of need," he said. "It is our intent to pay it forward in hopes that others will too.”
The strain has deepened in recent weeks as SNAP benefit delays tied to the federal government shutdown have left many families without expected assistance.
The North Texas Food Bank and Tarrant Area Food Bank have reported significant increases in need, prompting expanded mobile distributions and urgent food procurement efforts. HungerMitao’s donation partnership with Twisted X aims to stabilize emergency food supplies during this surge.
The ‘Million Meals Program’ expands on HungerMitao’s wider national work through the Feeding America network. HungerMitao, formed in 2017 by Raj and Aradhana (Anna) Asava, has enabled more than 80 million meals since its inception.
Its 2024–25 impact report shows 4.26 million meals provided in a single year and 24.46 million meals delivered over its lifetime, along with more than 152,000 volunteer hours.
The movement is grounded in community-driven philanthropy, a theme highlighted at a recent gathering hosted by Communities Foundation of Texas and the Asava family.
