We want to give a huge thank you to the Ocean Reef Community Foundation for being an ongoing supporter of ours year after year! Thanks to their generosity, we have received $50,000 in funding for our St. Justin’s Food Pantry that helps support and strengthen our hunger relief programs in the community.

This partnership has become such an important part of the work we do in Key Largo. Because of the continued support from the Ocean Reef Community Foundation, we are able to continue serving individuals and families week after week at our pantry.

We are incredibly grateful for your commitment to our mission and for being such a strong supporter of hunger relief in Key Largo. We truly love working alongside everyone at the Foundation and cannot wait to see the continued impact this funding will have on our community!
