This MLK Day of Service, join JWLA and other local voluntary bar associations, United Way of Northeast Florida, Feeding Northeast Florida and the North Riverside Community Development Corporation as we address food insecurity among struggling families in Hollybrook Homes Apartments. It is estimated that 1 of 6 adults and 1 of 4 children in Northeast Florida is hungry or facing food insecurity, which is simply not knowing when or how they will get their next meal. The largest growing population experiencing hunger or food insecurity is working families, “ordinary” people who work hard and live on an income that can’t stretch from paycheck to paycheck.

Volunteers are needed to help unload, sort, and hand food to resident families in need. We will meet at the Ritz Theater and Museum at 829 N. Davis Street for an energizing kickoff and light breakfast and then head to Hollybrook Homes to get to work!
