Its mission is to ensure that everyone in Palm Beach County has access to the basics: a quality education, a place to live, financial stability, good medical care, and enough to eat.

Its stated program areas include financial stability, hunger relief, housing and homelessness, youth education and mentoring, and support for families with children with disabilities. Community Impact grants support nonprofit programs aligned with areas including Education, Mentoring, Special Needs, Income, and Health.

Examples of supported organizations illustrate the range of work funded. The Arc of Palm Beach County says its mission is to help create a community where every person feels welcome, connected, and accepted. The Palm Beach County Food Bank says it works to fight hunger and improve food security through food, nutrition education, and financial assistance. Adopt-A-Family of the Palm Beaches says it strengthens families with children toward stability and self-sufficiency, while The Lord’s Place says it works to break the cycle of homelessness.
