Boca Cares Helps Local Charities

Boca Cares is a non-profit philanthropic organization focused on serving those in need in the local Englewood area. This association recently issued year-end grants of $4,000 to Englewood Helping Hand, Englewood Meals on Wheels, and St. David’s Jubilee Center to fund meals over the holidays. Englewood Animal Rescue Sanctuary (EARS) received a $500 grant. Boca Cares facilitates fund-raising within the Boca Golf & Country Club community to help those less fortunate. Through Boca Royale resident contributions, Boca Cares has funded more than $275,000 in grants to local charities since its inception in late 2018. The Boca Care grants were presented to Mark Renne, Executive Director of Englewood Helping Hand; Kathy Jacklin, President of Englewood Meals on Wheels; Laura Roy Fink, Jubilee Center Administrator; and R. Todd Zimmerman, EARS Executive Director.
