ABOUT

CATERINA’S CLUB caterinasclub.org

Caterina’s Club’s mission is to provide warm meals, affordable housing assistance, and job training to homeless and low-income families throughout Southern California. It all started in 2005, when the owner of the exclusive Anaheim White House Restaurant, Chef Bruno Serato and his mother Caterina were visiting a local Boys & Girls Club and noticed a 6-year-old boy eating potato chips for dinner.

What started as feeding a few dozen children every night that year grew into the ‘Feeding the Kids in America’ program, which provides meals to more than 25,000 kids every week in 30 cities across Southern California. In addition, the charity’s ‘Welcome Home’ program has provided permanent housing for 223 families and more than 250 teenagers have been trained through the Caterina’s Club Hospitality Academy program at four local high schools.

The Caterina’s Club vision is to break the cycle of poverty and to provide to every child the resources, love and encouragement they need to be healthy, safe and educated. LOCAL RADIOTHONS

#TeamTrees came to life when the online community challenged 21-year- old YouTuber Jimmy Donaldson – aka MrBeast – to plant 20 million trees to commemorate hitting 20 million YouTube subscribers. Joining forces with other online influencers, including fellow YouTuber and former NASA scientist Mark Rober, Donaldson drove the YouTube community’s campaign to raise $20 million to plant 20 million trees around the globe. The campaign reached its $20 million goal on December 19, just 56 days after its launch on October 25. To date, the campaign has collected more than 800,000 donations totaling more than $21.5 million. While #TeamTrees garnered large contributions from tech industry leaders - including Elon Musk, Marc Benioff, Susan Wojcicki and Tobi Lütke – smaller donations from hundreds of thousands of donors pushed the campaign to the finish line. The most common donation amount was just $5.
