Alleviating hunger in Palm Beach County by sourcing, sorting and distributing food to partner agencies and connecting neighbors to benefits and resources.
Palm Beach County Food Bank Inc gives mostly unrestricted support to a network of local hunger-relief organizations serving Palm Beach County. In the latest grant records, its largest award was $3,530,027 to Boca Helping Hands Inc in Boca Raton, followed by $2,534,280 to Restoration Bridge International in Lake Worth. Those grants sit within a broader pattern of recurring support for food pantries, ministries, and community groups that distribute food and connect people to resources. The foundation’s stated work centers on alleviating hunger in Palm Beach County by sourcing, sorting, and distributing food to partner agencies, while also connecting neighbors to benefits and other support. Its recent awards show that mission in practice: multi-million-dollar grants to major local partners and repeated funding to organizations working on food security, nutrition, and benefits outreach. Several recipients appear across multiple years, including Boca Helping Hands Inc, Restoration Bridge International, and The Guatemala Maya Center, indicating ongoing relationships rather than one-off awards. The grant list also includes organizations serving specific communities, such as Haitian, farmworker, and faith-based networks, alongside broader pantry and initiative partners.
Food security is the clearest thread in the foundation’s recent grantmaking. It gave $1,205,905 in 2024 to Feed the Hungry Pantry of PBC Inc in West Palm Beach for unrestricted support, and $830,608 in 2025 to the same organization for unrestricted support. Community-based distribution also appears in awards to CROS Lake Worth Food Pantry, which received $626,940 in 2025. The foundation also supports organizations that connect neighbors to services beyond food. In 2025, it granted $726,052 to The Glades Initiative in Belle Glade for unrestricted support, and $489,642 to Farmworker Coordinating Council - Lake Worth in Lake Worth for unrestricted support. Faith-linked ministries are part of the mix as well: First SDA West Palm Beach received $708,963 in 2025 for unrestricted support.
Grant sizes cluster in the mid-to-high five figures and low-to-mid six figures, with a p25 of $32,633, median of $69,542, and p75 of $135,225. The recent list also includes several much larger unrestricted awards, showing that the foundation backs both routine operating needs and larger organizational budgets. Recipients appear in multiple years, including Boca Helping Hands Inc, Restoration Bridge International, The Guatemala Maya Center, and United Haitian Baptist Food Ministry, which suggests ongoing support rather than isolated gifts. The foundation is structured as a food bank and funds nonprofits and civil society organizations. Its philosophy tags point to unrestricted support, general operating support, flexible funding, and organizational resilience.
