Hungry Games 6.0 is right around the corner, and it's gearing up to be grander than ever before! Bracken's Kitchen is proud to announce yet another installment of this beloved event, dedicated to supporting the less fortunate and food-insecure communities in Southern California.
Mark your calendars for Thursday, September 14th, 2023, at 5:30 p.m., and head to Bracken's Kitchen in Garden Grove for an unforgettable evening. The night promises an abundance of delectable hors d'oeuvres, mouthwatering meals, and delightful beverages as talented chefs vie for the top spot in a friendly culinary competition. You'll also have the power to vote for your favorites throughout the event, adding an exciting interactive element. Plus, the Pinch Me! Band will be back to set the stage with fantastic live music, adding to the festive atmosphere.
As Bracken's Kitchen celebrates a decade of providing nourishing and flavorful meals to those in need, they remain deeply humbled by their accomplishments. Having served 1.7 million meals in both 2020 and 2021 during the height of the pandemic, they continued their impactful work by providing 1.5 million meals last year. In 2023, their goal is even more ambitious - to serve 2 million meals in and around Orange County. Beyond their vital community feeding program, Bracken's Kitchen is also in the midst of their third culinary training class, offering a lifeline out of poverty to those seeking a fresh start.
Join the festivities, savor remarkable food, enjoy live music, and be part of a noble cause at Hungry Games 6.0. Let's come together to make a meaningful difference in our community.
