Palm Beach Harvest Provides 1,000 Meals

Download These Books Today ! YOUR LEGAL RESOURCE In March, Palm Beach Harvest went into emergency mode and established a community command center. They had one major goal: provide 1,000 meals per day. They connected with several nonprofits in the area to make it happen. They aimed to provide hot meals to those who need them and cannot otherwise get nutritious food, either In March, Palm Beach Harvest was designated as an essential nonprofit organization because they help provide meals for those in the community. Palm Beach Harvest is a food bank but not in the traditional sense. Unlike a typical food bank, they don’t store pantries of food. Instead, they take in more perishable food — food that hasn’t yet hit its expiration date but hasn’t otherwise been sold or consumed. They often get food from stores like Whole Foods and Aldi, or restaurants like Olive Garden or Texas Roadhouse, then redistribute it to food banks, churches, and other nonprofits to get the food to those who need it most, including seniors. And in 22 years of operation, this approach of redistributing unsold food has worked like a charm. Recently, their focus has expanded to include those helping to fight the coronavirus pandemic, including first responders, police, firefighters, and health care professionals.

because they don’t have time — such as first responders — or they don’t have the means, such as the elderly living on fixed incomes and kids who are out of school and previously relied on school lunch programs. Palm Beach Harvest volunteers, like Ricardo Delagarza, are working around the clock to make all of this happen. Delagarza is a full-time volunteer and facilitator, and he’s one of Matthew’s good friends. Delagarza is one of many volunteers who helps pick up and deliver food. He also helped put Palm Beach Harvest’s emergency plan into action and has since gotten food into the hands of countless people in need.
