In 1992, a diverse group of local businessmen, neighbors, firefighters, police officers, and other civil servants came together and formed the Big Heart Brigade, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that feeds people in need.
Today, we’re most known for our service to returning military combat veterans, First Responders injured in the line of duty and the less fortunate in our community. Historically our focus was the annual Thanksgiving Feast which brought together thousands of volunteers from throughout South Florida. Together, we prepared and distributed individually packaged Thanksgiving meals to the less fortunate in our communities.
