Madeline Meets Bruno
 Last week our owner Bruno Serato had the privilege of meeting a young women named Madeline who took a cross country road trip with her parents all the way from the NY area to Anaheim, CA! Along the way she stopped in various locations to meet three of her top heroes that have inspired her. One of them being Bruno! Please take a chance to read the blog below posted by Madeline's mother about their wonderful experiences here at the Anaheim White House! From meeting Bruno, to having Madeline help him feed the motel children, to meeting the President of Disneyland, it was sure a day that Madeline and Bruno won't forget!

A Dream Come True


A Dream Come True
An Event you won't want to miss. 20 TOP Chef's from around the World come together for a cause!
As you already know I am feeding 300 underprivileged children 7 nights a week. I am so happy and grateful that you all have helped me continue to do that.
However at 5 pm, when it is time to send the kids back to motel, I have a broken heart.
Most of these kids are going back to a motel environment that is far from safe. Not only are there drug addicts, prostitutes, and alcoholics but there are also sexual predators that live in these motels amongst our children.
I have new project in 2012. I would like to move families who qualify out of that environment, and help them start a new path for their future.
I work with another great organization, The Illumination Foundation. They are helping me find families all around Orange County to help move from local motels into a more stable environment.
So far we have families from Anaheim, Placentia, Buena Park, Newport Beach, Los Alamitos, San Juan Capistrano, Tustin, Costa Mesa and Santa Ana that lived in motels and had the chance to move out into a 2/3 bedroom apartment.
A lot of these families could move out if we help them pay first and last months rent. It is almost impossible for them to save.
This program is very successful, in the fact that after we move them into an apartment we follow up with them for over 1 year to make sure they are stable.
Now this is how you can help me. Myself and food critic Sophie Gayot, of GAYOT.com, are joining forces for the next event in the eighth GAYOT Dinner Series on April 26th to benefit Caterina’s Club.
We will be featuring the top 20 chefs from around the World! All of the chefs are getting together to help to raise money to continue moving more families out of the motel and into Apartments.
I am asking that you spread the word and try to help me by getting a table for the event or even help selling tickets. I have attached a copy of our Sponsorship form; please feel free to forward this along to all of your colleagues, family and friends.
Together we can change the life of a child who doesn’t deserve to grow up in a motel. “It’s time to stop talking about it, and to start doing something about it!”
I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.
