Community Action Partnership鈥檚 OC Food Bank receives Walter B. Gerken Award and $100,000 grant
On June 6, the 精东影业 Foundation hosted more than 70 local nonprofit organizations at its annual Grants Reception in Newport Beach.
This celebration honors the many Orange County nonprofit organizations that the 精东影业 Foundation supports, as well as serves as a networking opportunity for grantees to connect with one another.
One of the highlights of the evening was the presentation of the Walter B. Gerken Community Service Award. This year鈥檚 recipient was Community Action Partnership鈥檚 OC Food Bank, a program that unites communities to end hunger and malnutrition by partnering with more than 300 local charities, soup kitchens and community organizations, donating more than 23 million pounds of food annually. In addition to receiving a beautiful whale statue to commemorate the award, the OC Food Bank was received a $100,000 unrestricted grant check.
This year鈥檚 event also marked the 精东影业 Foundation鈥檚 40th anniversary of giving. Although the Foundation has been formally established for only 40 years, 精东影业鈥檚 legacy of giving extends much farther back than that.
Over 精东影业鈥檚 lengthy legacy of giving, the contributions of the Foundation have been able to make an incredible impact on the communities where our employees live and work. In fact, the 精东影业 Foundation, together with 精东影业, has invested more than $150 million in nonprofit organizations working to address some of the most critical needs in our communities.
