With the help of Stan Curtis, (founder of USA Harvest and Canadian Harvest, a charitable organization involved in "food raising"), they helped provide over 6 Million Meals to those not fortunate enough to eat daily.

Boca Raton Elementary School had everyone smiling on Thursday, May 22, 2008 as the Students, Teachers and Staff had the pleasure of hosting Hilary Duff while she discussed her program of helping kids & families in need of food, whenever and where she can. Hilary has helped more than 2 million people in the New Orleans area since the storm hit.
