Following the Honorable Tom Tait’s initiative to encourage acts of kindness in the City of Anaheim, the Kindness Awards recognizes residents in the Fourth District who exemplify exceptional kindness or community service.
The honorees for the 7th Annual Fourth District Kindness Awards were:
⭐️City of Anaheim: Angelo Barsotti�⭐️City of Brea: Barry Burriesci�⭐️City of Buena Park: Leslee Milch�⭐️City of Fullerton: Christine Givens�⭐️City of La Habra: Vanessa Perkins�⭐️City of Placentia: Carla Hutchinson�⭐️City of Stanton: Eliza Labunog�
We also awarded the Honorary Kindness Award to Jay Williams.
It is especially important for us to acknowledge and appreciate kindness wherever we can find it. Our Kindness Award honorees have risen to the challenge and have gone beyond that to ensure the needs of our communities are met.
Thank you to our distinguished panel of judges, including the Honorable Tom Tait, Charles Barfield, Lorena Moreno, Rosalina Davis, and Christian Esteban for selecting our honorees.
We also send special thank you’s to Fullerton Free Church for allowing us host the event at their venue, the Jay Ray Singers, Savanna High School Macondo Ballet Folklorico, Kristi’s Catering, and Ronald Galang for his photography services.Photos from O.C. Supervisor Doug Chaffee's post
Last Saturday, we partnered with United Across Borders and ICNA Relief Southern California SoCal to give $25 grocery gift cards, produce boxes, and other food items to over 1,100 families at Fullerton Free Church.
The drive-thru distribution was a great success thanks to Team Chaffee, our partners, and District 4 Volunteers! Together, we shared the spirit of gratitude with Orange County Fourth District families in need this holiday season.Photos from O.C. Supervisor Doug Chaffee's post
Warmest wishes this Thanksgiving from all of us at the District 4 office! We are truly grateful to service the Fourth District of Orange County. Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁
On Monday, Office Ambassador Paulette Chaffee stopped at the CSUF Center for Healthy Neighborhoods to give them 25 Grocery Cards for Thanksgiving.
We are proud to help them support families this holiday season and beyond.
Yesterday, I attended the grand opening of the Friendly Mart in William Peak Park.
Friendly Mart is brand-new mini-mart designed to allow Friendly Center clients to pick and choose the groceries they need, fostering a sense of autonomy and dignity in the process. The opening before Thanksgiving allowed for families to get groceries ahead of the holiday, ensuring everyone can have a feast this week.
Congratulations to the City of Buena Park and the Friendly Center on this creative collaboration to fight food insecurity and hunger this holiday season and for years to come.Photos from O.C. Supervisor Doug Chaffee's post
