Annual Appreciation Brunch

Thank you to all who attended our 5th annual appreciation brunch for members of The Grove!

It was inspiring to reflect on the significant accomplishments we’ve achieved together over the past year. Through your generosity, Feeding San Diego provided over 31 million meals last year to our community while adapting to the changing landscape of hunger relief. Your support as a member of The Grove makes this work possible every single day.

Client Testimonials

A Feeding San Diego School Pantry In Action

As Feeding San Diego staff and board members, we are incredibly appreciative of all you do to support this mission. We are honored to have spoken to Liliana, a devoted mother of two living in San Diego’s Normal Heights community, who has been a recipient of your generosity. Watch your impact in action.

Your Impact

We would also be remiss in not sharing an overview of other programs you helped support this last year. There are thousands of people in San Diego who can go to bed at night after a healthy meal with the anticipation of an exciting breakfast for the next morning. All because of you!

As members of The Grove, you are a huge piece of the puzzle that is solving hunger in San Diego. We hope to see you all at an upcoming event.
