The Polo Club of Boca Raton Lends a Hand: Tackling Food Insecurity with Community Action
On March 4, members and staff of the Polo Club of Boca Raton came together in a remarkable show of solidarity to address the issue of food insecurity in Palm Beach County. Their initiative, Polo Feeds, underscored the community's commitment to philanthropy, resulting in the packing of over 90,000 meals for local food banks.
The event, part of a day-long effort, saw the club raising $30,000. This funding facilitated the purchase of nearly 14,000 pounds of food, directly impacting the lives of the county's underserved communities. With the delivery of supplies via an 18-wheeler, participants, including the initiative's co-chairs Lauren Spitz and Linda Rosenthal, worked in unison for efficient meal packing and distribution.
Local food banks benefited from this collective effort, including institutions such as Boca Helping Hands, Jacobsen Food Pantry, and Feeding South Florida. The Polo Feeds program, driven by Spitz, Rosenthal, and the club's Community Relations Committee, reflects the Polo Club's foundation in philanthropy and its proactive stance against the prevailing issue of food insecurity affecting over a quarter-million local residents.
The Polo Club of Boca Raton, through actions like these, continues to highlight its role not only as a social gathering spot but as a significant force for good in the community. Their most recent effort in the Polo Feeds program serves as a reminder of the power of collective action in addressing critical societal needs.
