Hungry Games 6.0 is back better & BIGGER than ever before. We are so thrilled to host yet another Hungry Games event benefiting the less fortunate and food insecure in Southern California! Please join us at our very own kitchen on Thursday, September 14th 2023 at 5:30pm for a wonderful evening together! It will be full of great food, fun, and of course, friendly competition.
Come hungry for some yummy hors d'oeuvres, meals, and beverages that you will LOVE as the chefs battle for first place! We need YOU to help vote for your favorites throughout the night. We have the Pinch Me! band returning to play some incredible live music again!
As we celebrate our tenth anniversary of serving healthy and delicious meals to those in need, I am humbled by and grateful for what we have been able to accomplish. Bracken's Kitchen is still striving to meet the needs of our community - after pandemic high numbers of 1.7 million meals in 2020 and 2021, we served 1.5 million meals last year, 2022. For 2023, we are on pace to serve 2 million meals in and around Orange County. In addition to our community feeding program, we are in the middle of our second culinary training class and starting a third in June, helping those in need with a hand up out of poverty.
