  • Loaves and Fishes Fort Pierce Volunteer Appreciation Dinner

    During a board meeting last week, the board accepted the new logo shown to the right!

    Save the Date! October 24, 2026

    Loaves and Fishes Fort Pierce will host our annual Volunteer Appreciation Dinner on Saturday, October 24, 2026 at Aquanique Ocean Club, 2700 N Hwy A1A (Jimmy Buffet Hwy) N. Hutchinson Island, FL 34949. Plan to arrive at 12:30 PM and we should be done by 3:00 PM.

    Directions: From US 1, take the new bridge east across the lagoon to North Hutchison Island. The road takes a sharp left turn at the traffic light onto A1A (approximately 1 mile past Little Jim ). After the turn, the first high rise building on the right is the Aquanique Ocean Club. Take a right into the Aquanique Entrance and park anywhere (except Handicap spot). Someone will be at the front door of the building to facilitate your entrance. If you arrive after 1:00 PM, call 321 794 9494 and you will be buzzed in through that front door.

    We will begin with a social hour then have a buffet dinner followed by volunteer recognition. Finally we will conduct some business with announcements and feedback session. Our new T-shirts with the new logo will be distributed. One t-shirt is free for each volunteer and you will have the opportunity to purchase a second t-shirt if you want.

    Logo is a basket containing two loaves of bread and a fish. The website url is displayed in an arch across the bottom

    Loaves and Fishes Fort Pierce provides meals and other support for homeless and food-insecure neighbors in Fort Pierce, Florida.  We also offer a free commissary with clothing, outdoor living essentials and personal hygiene products.  When requested, we offer sponsors to help persons who are homeless navigate government bureaucracy to apply for benefits for which they qualify.

    Currently, we serve a free Sunday Dinner at 11:30 AM in the parking area for 5 Star Automotive at 515 N 4th Street (US 1), Fort Pierce FL 34950; corner of US 1 and Cedar Place.

    Our meals are prepared in volunteer home kitchens and brought to the site in containers provided, served cafeteria-style.  We serve under the building carport. We thank the owners of 5 Star Car Repair for allowing us to use their property each Sunday.

    During the meal, REACH Outreach also sponsors a free commissary for these neighbors to provide clothing, outdoor living essentials and personal hygiene products. This commissary is supported by donations from area churches and the St Lucie County community.
