For the fifth year in a row, Town Center at Boca Raton will join Boca Helping Hands to make the holidays brighter for the community’s underserved. The shopping center and the non-profit organization will host this year’s Christmas Day Feast, Drive-Thru Edition, at Town Center at Boca Raton’s porte cochere in Boca on Friday, Dec. 25 from 9 AM until 12PM. Guests will remain in their cars with masks on while volunteers place holiday meals, gifts and arts & crafts projects in their trunks. The entrance will be decorated with giant inflatable candy canes and snow will drift down to the cars.
While the event can’t be held inside this year, in true Town Center at Boca Raton style, attendees will experience five-star treatment, complete with a wave from Santa and gifts for every child.
“Each holiday season, Town Center at Boca Raton looks forward to hosting the Give Back Christmas Day Feast and spreading goodwill to the underserved in our community,” said Sal Saldaña, Town Center at Boca Raton’s General Manager. “This year, we’ve worked especially hard to ensure that we’ve created a safe environment for our guests. Our dedicated staff, restaurants, volunteers and Boca Helping Hands look forward to welcoming area families to enjoy a feast at home while experiencing a magical drive through.”
Families will drive up and be checked in, remaining in their car with masks on. Masked volunteers will then place holiday meals in their trunks. As they drive on, Santa will wave and gifting elves will add age-appropriate gifts to their trunks, as well as arts & crafts projects to do at home. All leftover food will be donated to Boca Helping Hands.
The feast will welcome a multitude of community non-profits including 4KIDS of South Florida, Boys & Girls Club of Boca Raton, Family Promise of South Palm Beach County, Florence Fuller Child Development Center, For The Children, Inc., HomeSafe, Jim & Jan Moran Boys & Girls Club, Propel, The Salvation Army Boca Raton, and Unicorn Village Academy.
