The Flagler Beach Democratic Club (FBDC) and the Palm Coast Democratic Club (PCDC) are supporting local charities that provide food to those in need during the COVID-19 crisis.

The FBDC Board is supporting the Grace Community Food Pantry and the Flagler County Family Assistance Center, Inc., a/k/a, The Sheltering Tree. The PCDC is subsidizing a big grocery purchase and delivery to The Sheltering Tree.

The mission of the Grace Community Food Pantry in Bunnell is to assist in feeding Flagler County’s less fortunate until they are able to feed themselves.
