After seven years as Executive Director and four years as a member of the Board before that, Greg Hazle will be retiring from Boca Helping Hands at the end of May. Since first joining the organization in 2014 as a Board Member and stepping into the role of Executive Director in 2018, Greg has been instrumental in expanding the scope and impact of our programs, strengthening our organization, and ensuring that more families in our community receive the help they need. His leadership was especially critical during the COVID-19 crisis, when food insecurity surged, and thousands of families turned to Boca Helping Hands for support. Under Greg’s guidance, our organization quickly adapted—expanding meal distribution venues, launching drive-thru pantry operations, providing on-line job training options, and increasing emergency financial assistance—to help our community weather the storm. We are incredibly grateful for Greg’s dedication, resilience, and passion for our mission. His legacy will continue to shape Boca Helping Hands for years to come. Please join us in thanking Greg for his years of service and wishing him all the best in his next chapter!

关于我们
Boca Helping Hands (BHH) is a community-based 501(c)(3) organization that was formed in 1998 by a group of local religious congregations. BHH first opened as a Food Center in November 1998, serving nutritious hot lunches three days a week and distributing bags of groceries to families. In January 2010, all operations were consolidated into the Remillard Family Resource Center located at 1500 NW 1st Court, Boca Raton 33432. Boca Helping Hands opened a Resource Center in April 2002 with a focus on providing help for Boca Raton residents in crisis situations (e.g., eviction, utility cancellation, prescription medication). Today, a hot, nutritious meal can be picked up six days a week at our main facility on a drive-thru basis. Meals are also delivered to homebound disabled and elderly individuals. We continue to see a large increase in the demand for our services. In response to this increased demand, we expanded the Job Training Program. We offer the following classes: Medical Billing & Coding, Home Health Aide training, Certified Nurse Assistant, Information & Technology training, CDL (Commercial Truck Driving) training, and Customer Service Representative training. Our Job Mentoring program provides coaching, guidance and classes designed to help individuals who are seeking employment opportunities. These services complement our food and resource programs in our continuing efforts to help clients improve their quality of life and achieve financial stability. We are generously supported by individuals, corporations, foundations, schools and over 300 dedicated volunteers.
