nutrition programs

Higher Ground was blessed to be chosen as a Kid’s Café Site, a program in conjunction with Second Harvest Food Bank of Orange County.  This program provides nutrition education, healthy lunches and snacks free of charge daily to all youth under the age of 18. 

During our Summer Program, we served approximately 3650 lunches and 3500 snacks. Caterina's Club run by Chef Bruno Serato and Bracken's Kitchen donates meals to feed our campers dinner after a long day of summer activities. 

Currently, we serve our children with healthy snacks when they get out of school each day before we help them with their homework. After the homework is completed, we engage our youth with sports and then various enrichment activities. At the end of the day, everyone enjoys a healthy dinner together!
