Solstice Shares Spirit of Giving, Donates Food Drive Items to Feeding South Florida

December 10, 2014 - Plantation, FL

It’s the season of giving. Solstice embraced it recently by holding a food drive for Feeding South Florida. Items collected included canned meats, vegetables, rice, beans, fruits and other foods. These donations support the hundreds of thousands of homeless and hungry families across South Florida counties.

One in six Americans are at risk of hunger. Since its founding in 1981, Feeding South Florida has been dedicated to addressing the growing epidemic of hunger. The organization distributes over two million pounds of food every month to those in need. This includes:

• Children
• Working poor
• Physically or mentally challenged individuals
• Single parents
• Homeless individuals and families
• Senior citizens 
• Those in assisted living facilities

“We are so proud of our employees who embraced the spirit of the holiday season by donating food to an important cause,” said Solstice COO Carlos Ferrera. “No one should have to go hungry. Giving food to those less fortunate shows who we are as individuals and together as a team at Solstice.”

Solstice encourages other organizations and individuals to get involved as well. Learn more about Feeding South Florida and help out families in need this holiday season.
