💚 Publix Serves — COOKING WITH LOVE DELIVERY DRIVERS OF THE WEEK! 💚

This week, we’re proud to recognize an incredible father-daughter team, Bella and her dad, Abe Gonzalez, as our Cooking With Love Delivery Drivers of the Week! 🚗❤️

Talk about going the extra mile — literally! Bella and Abe traveled nearly five hours from Palm Beach County to Key West, then rolled up their sleeves to help deliver nutritious meals directly to our Island seniors.

Their kindness is a beautiful example of what Publix Serves is all about: giving back, showing up, and making a meaningful difference in the communities we serve.

Thank you, Bella and Abe, for making the long journey to share your time, energy, and hearts with Cooking With Love and our Key West community. 🌴💚

💚 A heartfelt thank you to Publix and its Marathon and Key West stores for making a difference in our island community with their Publix Serves program.

This morning, Publix team members came together with Cooking With Love Key West to provide and help deliver 300 fresh, nutritious meals to local island seniors. Their generosity went far beyond supplying the meal—the Publix team rolled up their sleeves and helped make sure those meals reached the people we serve.

The Publix Picnic 🧺 Lunch consisted of a thin sliced turkey deli sandwich with American cheese, shredded lettuce, sliced tomato 🍅 and mayo/mustard packs, macaroni salad and fresh ripe grapes. 🍇

Community partnerships like this are what make the Florida Keys so special. We are incredibly grateful to Publix for its continued commitment to giving back, serving our neighbors, and supporting our seniors. 💚🌴

💚 Publix Serves: Neighbors Helping Neighbors! 💚

What an incredible morning of community service! Associates from three Publix stores—from Marathon to Key West—came together through Publix Serves to make a meaningful difference for our island seniors.

With plenty of smiles, teamwork, and heart, the Publix team helped prepare and serve a healthy, nutritious lunch, ensuring our seniors received not only a delicious meal, but also the care and kindness that make our Florida Keys community so special.

We are incredibly grateful to Publix and every associate who volunteered their time today. When our community partners and volunteers come together, we nourish more than our community—we nourish the spirit of the Keys. 🌴💚🥗

Cooking With Love ❤️ is thrilled to have a new Community Partner this Saturday. 😎

Publix Serves is a community program where their associates volunteer to help the environment and fight hunger in the eight states where they operate. Launched in 2015, it started as a single day of giving back and has grown into two week-long events held each spring and fall.

🚗❤️ COOKING WITH LOVE DRIVER TEAM OF THE WEEK!

This week, we’re very grateful to recognize Key West Mayor Sam Kaufman and his wife, Julia for continuing to volunteer with Cooking With Love ❤️

They take time from their busy schedules to deliver nutritious meals—and warm smiles—to seniors throughout our community. Their service reflects what Cooking With Love is all about: neighbors helping neighbors with compassion and kindness. 🤗

Thank you, Sam and Julia, for rolling up your sleeves and serving alongside us. We’re so grateful to have you as part of the Cooking With Love family!

It’s a treat for our local seniors to open their door and see the Mayor and his wife handing them a nutritious meal.
