The Brooksville nonprofit Operation HeartF.E.L.T. (Feeding Empty Little Tummies) a grassroots, volunteer-run non-profit backpack program provides more than 260,000 nutritious meals annually to Hernando County children suffering from food insecurity. The meals allow the children to get through weekends, holidays, and extended school breaks. We feed about 800 children every week currently, and the need is growing, said Danielle Healis, secretary at Operation HeartF.E.L.T. and Managing Partner for Killingsworth Agency. And because of COVID, we haven t been able to fund-raise. We watch the bank account, hoping to have enough money for food.

A $5,000 gift to a Murray nonprofit feeding ministry could be doubled to $10,000 due to a social media campaign designed to garner votes from community members.
The Soup for the Soul food pantry and soup kitchen received the original gift from Peel and Holland Insurance through a partnership with Liberty Mutual and Safeco Insurance’s “Make More Happen” awards. Peel and Holland’s strong connections with Soup for the Soul led them to seek out the funding, according to the contest webpage. Multiple staff members of the insurance agency serve on Soup for the Soul’s board of directors or volunteer with the organization.
