(Palm Beach County, July 08, 2024) When vulnerable children and their families – some of whom are homeless – speak with Philanthropic Influencers like Denise Fraile, authentic mission connections happen, and hope is renewed. During a family event for The Kin Support program an authentic mission connection was realized as Denise Fraile spent the day at Okeeheelee Park meeting, but most importantly actively listening as families shared their heart-felt stories through tears and laughter highlighting how grateful they were to Families First of Palm Beach County (FFPBC) for the amazing support they’ve experienced as a participant of The Kin Support program.
