Gift Drive to Benefit Three Local Charities and Food Drive for Feed the Hungry Pantry of Palm Beach County
(WEST PALM BEACH, FL) November 1, 2024 – Leadership Palm Beach County’s annual Holiday Breakfast, presented by Boca Raton Bowl, will take place on the morning of Friday, December 6, at the Marriott in West Palm Beach.
Spearheading the planning of this year’s Holiday Breakfast are event Co-Chairs Brian Elkins, Director of Events, Palm Beach North Chamber of Commerce, and Bonni Funt, Director of Business Development/Marketing at TSF Geo, both graduates of the Class of 2022 Leadership PBC Engage Program. Event Co-Chair Bonni Funt shared her enthusiasm for leading the committee for this special event, saying, “Brian and I couldn’t be more excited to celebrate the Holiday Breakfast with the community as we continue the Leadership Palm Beach County tradition of gathering gifts for our local nonprofits.”
Leadership PBC’s Annual Holiday Breakfast serves many purposes each year. Most importantly, the Holiday Breakfast celebrates the season of giving. Event guests are encouraged to bring toys and gift cards to donate to the gift drive at the event. This gift drive benefits three local charities, each representing different age groups (Children ages 0-12, Teens/Young Adults ages 13-21, and Adults/Seniors ages 22+.) There will also be a food drive to benefit Feed the Hungry Pantry of Palm Beach County. Leadership PBC’s annual Holiday Breakfast is an opportunity for alumni and community members to convene and celebrate the holiday season. The event features many fun holiday elements including a silent auction and an update on the state of Leadership PBC.
Leadership Palm Beach County is always grateful for the generosity of its sponsors. This year’s sponsors include the Boca Raton Bowl, FPL, Feed the Hungry Pantry of PBC, Lesser, Lesser, Landy & Smith, and the Florida Sugar Cane League.
