WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — The City of West Palm Beach is seeking volunteers to assist with the COVID-19 response.

According to a news release, approximately 1,500 to 2,000 boxes of food are donated to organizations to help the families and due to the increasing demand, volunteers are needed to ensure that all community needs are met.

The group meets every Wednesday from 12:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the parking lot of the former West Palm Beach Golf Course located at 7001 Parker Avenue.
