Today is Election Day! 🗳️ At the beginning of this year, Charitable Ventures proudly launched the OC Votes initiative to highlight the power of voting and civic engagement. Together with our incredible partners, guest speakers, facilitators, and support team, we’ve worked to bring timely, essential resources to our local communities—empowering every voice, one vote at a time. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our driving force to get out the vote! We’re here and ready today to support all those heading to the polls. Let’s make every vote count for a brighter future! #ElectionDay #EveryVoteCounts #CivicEngagement

Earlier this month, the Charitable Ventures team joined forces with FAM - Family Assistance Ministries for an inspiring day at their 37th Annual Hunger Walk!

Let’s continue to be a force for positive change. Want to learn more about how FAM combats hunger in our community?
