Together, we can ignite hope and rebuild our communities stronger than ever. Join us in making a difference 🧡 #FeedingSouthFlorida #FSF #EndHunger #DisasterRelief #DisasterRecovery

We’re proud of our President & CEO, Paco Vélez, for representing Feeding South Florida on CBS, where he discussed the ongoing fight against hunger during Hunger Action Month. With over a million people in South Florida struggling to put food on the table, Paco emphasized that hunger is a symptom of a larger issue—poverty. Feeding South Florida is not just about distributing food; it’s about empowering families through services like federal benefits assistance, workforce training programs, and cultural sensitivity in our food distribution. We serve the entire region of South Florida, from Palm Beach to the Keys, working closely with our community to create lasting change. Thank you to CBS for shedding light on this critical issue, and thank you to our community for always stepping up to support us in times of need. Together, we’re making a difference. 💪🧡 #HungerActionMonth #FeedingSouthFlorida #Leadership #EndingHunger #CommunityImpact #PacoVelez
