Project Boon, a nonprofit organization committed to addressing food insecurity and providing essential resources, proudly announces the milestones achieved in 2024. With the help of our volunteers, partners, and donors, we distributed 30,000 meals, provided 3,000 backpacks with school supplies, and facilitated 1,800 health resource packets for those in need. This yearโs efforts were powered by 4,200 volunteer hours.
Major 2024 events included Eat & Be Well, the Thanksgiving event where 15,000 meals were distributed, and the Back-to-School Backpack Event, providing another 15,000 meals along with essential school supplies for under-resourced children. These efforts have continued to uplift families and individuals in the community.
Pivoting to LA County for Fire Recovery Efforts
In a recent initiative, Project Boon expanded its reach to LA County to support the LA fire recovery efforts. Working alongside Music Changing Lives and Hitch Burger, we are serving hot meals at the Heal Dena Camp to victims and volunteers affected by the wildfires. โWe are so glad we found a way to help support those impacted by the fires,โ said Daniel Lopez, Esq., Project Boon Board Member. โThis effort wouldnโt have been possible without our amazing partners and donors. Together, weโve brought comfort and nourishment to those who need it most.โ
Looking Ahead to 2025: New Programs and Volunteer Opportunities
Project Boon is gearing up for an exciting 2025, with fresh initiatives to deepen our impact. We invite you to visit our website to learn more about upcoming events and volunteer opportunities.
