Ray Havert, a local businessman in South Orange County, saw a need among his neighbors and decided to make a difference. He founded SCO in 1989 to fight to end hunger and homelessness in Orange County. Joining forces with a number of local volunteers, Ray conducted food drives and opened a small food cupboard that grew into a larger food program to assist families and seniors in need. Today, Ray's vision of "Love thy neighbor" continues through the continued work of South County Outreach today. Here from Bunni Ickes, and Shawna Smith, who recount stories of our founder and his work in action. #octalkradio #charity #community #communityoutreach "southcountycommunityoutreach #helpingothers

Learn how food can be the cornerstone of change. Chef Bill Bracken of Bracken's Kitchen discusses how his organization, along with South County Outreach, are not only feeding the hungry but also empowering communities. Before we can heal the sick, educate our children, house the homeless, or offer hope to the afflicted, we must first be able to feed and nourish them.  #hunger #homeless #homelessness #poverty #SouthCountyOutreach #octalkradio
