Located in Palm Beach Gardens, the organization will offer a range of services, including financial counseling, job training, and education programs. Bergel’s vision for the institute is to create a comprehensive system that addresses the root causes of poverty, rather than just providing temporary solutions.
Key Initiatives
- Financial Literacy Program: The organization will offer free financial counseling and education classes to help individuals manage their finances effectively.
- Job Training and Placement Services: Bergel’s team will provide job training programs, resume building assistance, and placement services to help individuals find employment.
- Education and Career Development: The institute will also offer educational resources and career development opportunities to help individuals improve their skills and advance in their careers.
Bergel believes that addressing poverty requires a multi-faceted approach. “We need to get beyond just providing food and shelter,” he said. “We need to address the underlying issues that lead to poverty, such as lack of education, job training, and access to resources.”
Community Support
The organization is already receiving support from local community leaders and businesses. “We are excited to partner with Mark Bergel and his team,” said Sarah Johnson, CEO of the Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce. “Their commitment to addressing poverty in our community aligns with our own values and goals.”

“We need the help of our community to make a difference,” said Bergel. “Together, we can create a brighter future for those struggling with poverty.”
