CAMACOL’s annual holiday food basket distribution underway in Miami

It’s a massive holiday tradition to help families in need during the holiday season, and that tradition is continuing in Miami during an annual holiday food basket distribution on Wednesday.

The Latin Chamber of Commerce of the United States (CAMACOL) is currently in the process of distributing 700 holiday food baskets, or Jabas, to families across Miami-Dade at loanDepot park in Little Havana.

It’s a longstanding CAMACOL tradition to provide essential food baskets to families over the holiday season, and this event reinforces the organization’s commitment to serve Miami-Dade’s diverse communities.

“We’re very pleased to be part of this tremendous community, and grateful we could join forces with so many generous sponsors to help the most needy when they most need it,” commented Pedro Mesa, Chair of the CAMACOL Holiday Basket Committee.

According to Feeding America, more than 250,000 are suffering from food insecurity in Miami-Dade County.
