Wilton Manors, FL – Last year, Poverello provided food to nearly 2,600 low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS. The center provided over 1.5 million meals from their “specialty food pantry account.”

“We need your help as federal funding is being debated and may very well impact the amount of food that Poverello can provide to our customers,” the organization wrote in a recent press release. “Low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS should not have to choose between paying for their medications or putting food on their table for themselves and their families.”

Give Out Day will allow Poverello to continue its mission of “providing life saving food and basic living essential with the highest degree of understanding, respect and love for indidivuals living with HIV, who are residents of Broward County and meet the specified qualifications for services.”
