In order to allow us to fulfill our mission, here in Garden Grove, we have active in feeding the homelesss through cooking meals and providing care packages of food, clothing and other supplies to whoever is in need. Through partnering with different organizations, companies and fundraising we have succeeded in providing.
This year's Kings and Queens have shown outstanding citizenship and dedication. They have all gone above and beyond what was expected of them. Each King and Queen spent countless hours setting up preparing food serving meals to the homeless and cleaning up. In addition to feeeding the homeless each King and Queen has hand delivered food and care packages to the less fortunate in the community.
