About Me


LOCATION: Centennial Square, Clematis St. in downtown West Palm Beach
TIME: 4:00PM each Saturday
Welcome to the official West Palm Beach of Food Not Bomb's myspace. We feed free vegetarian food and also give out free clothes to those in need, rain or shine. We're a very small, but committed group and would be happy if we had a couple extra helping hands! We've had many people come and go, so if you'd like to get involved, feel free to come down. If you have any questions regarding this group, you can ask by message, or contact us at [email protected]. Any questions regarding Food Not Bombs can be answered at FoodNotBombs.net
Here's a quick rundown on what Food Not Bombs is about...
For over 25 years the movement has worked to end hunger and has supported actions to stop the globalization of the economy, restrictions to the movements of people, end exploitation and the destruction of the earth. Started in 1980 in Cambridge, Mass. by two anti-nuclear war activists, Food Not Bombs is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to nonviolent, revolutionary social change. Food Not Bombs has no leaders and works cooperatively with members to serve (primarily) vegetarian meals to the homeless, people who've suffered a natural disaster, or underprivileged people. There has been autonomous chapters established all around the world, and now finally here in West Palm Beach. We hope you will participate in helping us make this a better world for you and everyone else to live in!
We are also accepting food donations! If you have any kind of produce, bread, etc contact us!
