About the Garden Grove Community Foundation

ggcf-clock.jpgThe Garden Grove Community Foundation is celebrating its 10th Anniversary in 2008! The Foundation has an exciting line up of events for the year, one being the 10th Anniversary Celebration and Fireworks Show on August 16. Check out the 2008 Events Schedule for more details.

In 1998, members of the Garden Grove City Council, community, and business leaders came together with a common goal: to create an organization that would enhance the quality of life for Garden Grove residents and businesses. Out of their efforts came the Garden Grove Community Foundation (GGCF). Founded as a 501 (c)3 non-profit organization, the Foundation helped to create a better image of Garden Grove, regionally, showcasing this community’s unique features, its diversity, and economic progress.

The founding Board Members for the GGCF worked to lay the groundwork for a program to support the mission and goals of the organization.

The program, originally named Renaissance Garden Grove, provided free summer concerts and Food for Thought programs to the community. In 2005, the Renaissance Garden Grove name was replaced with the GGCF name to avoid confusion and establish a permanent identity in the community.
