Partnership of Volunteers Distribute Food at Start of School Year

Body

​​Community Services Director Dr. James Green spent Saturday morning, August 12, volunteering with the Urban League of Palm Beach County​. The organization held three food distribution events throughout our county. Volunteers from local news station WPTV, FPL​, and the Urban League Guild all assisted in the distribution efforts. More than $50,000 was collec​ted to help purchase more than 21,000 pounds of fresh food

"The inflation, the lack of affordable housing, the ability for families to have viable salaries," Soulan Johnson​, who is ULPBC’s Vice President of Development and Marketing, said. "We work with our partners to ensure that we can spread a little joy by providing food at the beginning of the school year for families."​​
