About us

Boca Helping Hands (BHH) is a community-based 501(c)(3) organization that was formed in 1998 by a group of local religious congregations. BHH first opened as a Food Center in November 1998, serving nutritious hot lunches three days a week and distributing bags of groceries to families. In January 2010, all operations were consolidated into the Remillard Family Resource Center located at 1500 NW 1st Court, Boca Raton 33432. Boca Helping Hands opened a Resource Center in April 2002 with a focus on providing help for Boca Raton residents in crisis situations (e.g., eviction, utility cancellation, prescription medication). Today, a hot, nutritious meal can be picked up six days a week at our main facility on a drive-thru basis. Meals are also delivered to homebound disabled and elderly individuals. We continue to see a large increase in the demand for our services. In response to this increased demand, we expanded the Job Training Program. We offer the following classes: Medical Billing & Coding, Home Health Aide training, Certified Nurse Assistant, Information & Technology training, CDL (Commercial Truck Driving) training, and Customer Service Representative training. Our Job Mentoring program provides coaching, guidance and classes designed to help individuals who are seeking employment opportunities. These services complement our food and resource programs in our continuing efforts to help clients improve their quality of life and achieve financial stability. We are generously supported by individuals, corporations, foundations, schools and over 300 dedicated volunteers.

    🎓 Today, as we celebrate National Nonprofit Day, we’re especially proud to share that our Executive Director, Greg Hazle, recently completed the prestigious Strategic Perspectives in Nonprofit Management seminar at Harvard Business School! 🏫📈 During this intensive weeklong program, Greg had the opportunity to share insights with over 170 nonprofit leaders from around the world 🌍, as well as to learn about nonprofit leadership and effectiveness from Harvard Business School’s esteemed faculty. 🎓✨ We want to express our gratitude to the Goldman Sachs Philanthropy Fund Executive Education Fellowship 🙏 who sponsored Greg’s attendance at the seminar. Greg is looking forward to applying all he learned in leading our organization through the challenges of continuing to serve our community with excellence and impact. 💪 On this special day, we’re excited about the future and the positive changes this will bring to our mission! 💙 #socialgood #causes #givingback #philanthropy

    🎒 Back to School with BHH! 🎒 As we prepare for another school year, it's important to remember that many students in our community face food insecurity. BHH Backpacks is here to help, providing over 1,600 students with essential weekend meals every week. But we can't do it alone. You can support this crucial program by sponsoring our upcoming Bowling for Bread event! Every strike you make helps fill a backpack with food for a child in need. Let's work together to ensure no student goes hungry this school year. 🎳 #BacktoSchoolwithBHH #BHHBackpacks #BowlingForBread #SupportEducation
