“ViewSonic has been a supporter of Caterina’s Club for seven years and has donated cash and thousands of pounds of pasta each year during the annual pasta drive. One in five children are at risk of hunger each month in Orange County and those numbers have increased with the onset of COVID-19,” said Jeff Volpe, President, Americas, ViewSonic Corporation. “This devastating virus is hitting the less fortunate hard and children even harder. As California schools have shut down, and many children miss their daily lunch, which sometimes, is their only hot meal of the day, it is more important than ever for the community to come together to ensure these children are fed. We were pleased to take part in the American Foundation of Savoy Orders virtual fundraiser and ensure that it reached its goal. This benefits the children of our community through a long-time partner of ours, Caterina’s Club.”

The event raised $100,000 through its generous members, friends, and supporters.
