“This is all just for our mission to feed the hungry and the homeless here in Claremont, Pomona, Ontario, the surrounding cities,” said Hope Partners’ CEO Kami Grosvenor.

Upland resident Susan Riccio has been participating in the fundraiser for 15 years. “Especially with just everything going on in our country, in the world these days, I’d like to do something instead of just … doing nothing,” she said.
