Dear Readers,
Over 75 nonprofits are featured in the 2023 Giving Guide. I am in awe of the nonprofit community in Orange County and am so proud to witness it all come together for my first year in this role.
Thank you to all the underwriters that helped make it possible for so many nonprofits to participate this year.
Thank you to our publication sponsors- Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), Beyond Blindness, California State University Fullerton, Chapman University, Farmers & Merchants Bank, Lugano Diamonds, Melissa, The Wooden Floor, and University of California, Irvine.
A huge thanks to our amazing OC Business Journal team: Jami Derby for editing the content and Rich Loyd, Albert Ornelas and Sonia Chung for graphic design.
The Giving Guide is certainly the biggest special edition that we produce all year and it is amazing to see it come together. It is such a valuable resource for the community and I cannot wait to see it grow.
Special thank you to Amy Sfreddo for all of her guidance and help to bridge the gap for me and our partners. I am proud to be a part of such a giving community.
I welcome the opportunity to talk further with any of you on ways to support our nonprofit friends so they can continue to serve those in need in Orange County and beyond.
