Feeding South Florida

Please join us in raising money & awareness during these chaotic times to support the hungry children of South Florida!

In these moments of self-quarantining and self-reflection, we decided to put our time and efforts towards a greater cause - supporting children with limited access and resources. 

With over 46,000 school closings in the United States due to COVID-19, many children run the risk of going hungry. Over 14.7 million public school children depend on the School Breakfast Program, and over 30 million children depend on the National School Lunch Program as their sources of nutrition. 

Most of us are fortunate enough to not have to worry about our next meal. Many others are not. Feeding South Florida (FSF) is currently serving over 700,000 individuals in need of food assistance, and during these difficult times FSF needs your financial support more than ever. 

Any donation makes a difference! For as little as $1, Feeding South Florida can provide 6 meals. 

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity - together we can make a difference. 

Best,

Salvador Juncadella & Michael Fernandez 

Hey there friends! 


We are living in unprecedented times and families in our community are suffering from food insecurity. Record unemployment and lack of healthcare options is making day-to-day life difficult for people of all walks of life. We wanted to create a way to give back to our neighbors and bring a bit of joy into your homes!


That's why we created paraSOL! A coloring book full of fun and unique illustrations to inspire and relax you while you social distance. Coloring puts the mind in the same state as meditation… plus you’ll also have a beautiful piece of art when you’re done! The illustrations were created by artists in your community who also felt like they wanted to find a way to bring joy to others in this time of uncertainty. Each page features a different artist and their beautiful work. At the end of the book, you can see some samples of how the artists colored the pages in themselves if you're looking for inspiration! 


After you've colored in your pages, share them with the hashtag #parasolcoloringbook and tag @parasolcoloringbook so others can find the book and download their own! 


We have a suggested $5 donation per download. It might seem like a small donation but it goes a long way to bring peace of mind to families and individuals in these times! And you get 15+ coloring pages like you’ve never seen before!


Once you donate, visit this link to download the coloring book:

If you love this book as much as we do and want to help us out, please share this page with your friends and family who are looking for a fun and unique way to give back!


If you are an artist that would like to contribute to future releases, please get in touch! We would love to include your work and continue to raise funds for our community!
