BOCA RATON, Fla. â A local organization is making sure food is on the table for Palm Beach County families in need.
Boca Helping Hands announced Wednesday they are expanding their drive-thru Pantry Bag distribution hours.
The group said a time slot previously occupied by its Thursday night, sit-down family dinner will now be used to distribute food. Thankfully, due to the commitment of our volunteers and support from those in our community, we re able to add additional services, said Greg Hazle, the executive director of Boca Helping Hands. Without their dedication and willingness to give back to the community, we would not be able to continue to expand our services.
