Jamboree leadership recently toured Second Harvest Food Bank of Orange County in Irvine, hosted by CEO Claudia Bonilla Keller.

The visit provided an opportunity to discuss our ongoing partnership and learn more about Second Harvest’s work to provide dignified, equitable, and consistent access to nutritious food throughout Orange County.

Jamboree currently partners with Second Harvest across seven communities, with Heroes Landing as the newest participating site. In 2025, Second Harvest provided 52% of the food distributed by weight through Jamboree’s food distribution efforts.

For residents, particularly those living on fixed incomes, this partnership provides consistent access to nutritious food and helps fill gaps for those who may not qualify for or have access to other community food programs.

We appreciate Second Harvest’s continued partnership and shared commitment to supporting the health and well-being of our residents.

Residents at Ascent recently joined a gardening event to help care for their community garden.

The garden gives residents a place to spend time outdoors while growing fruits and vegetables that are harvested and shared with the community. Gardening also provides residents with a relaxing and therapeutic activity right outside their homes.

One resident shared:

“I love the garden; it helps me get out of my unit and I get to help make my community beautiful. I feel like I am caring for something, and it brings me joy to see the life that comes from it. I’m glad the staff, especially Tina, provides us with the tools and seeds to give life to our community. Watering the plants is very therapeutic to me. It makes me slow down and enjoy what the earth provides us with.”

The garden is a simple way for residents to get outside, connect with their community, and enjoy the food they grow together.

For residents who have experienced homelessness, one year of stable housing is an important milestone. Over the past year, residents have built stability, formed meaningful connections, and taken important steps forward while maintaining a place to call home.

Heroes Landing recently welcomed Vital Roots Foundation, Strong Families Strong Children, community volunteers, and residents for a collaborative garden improvement day designed to make the space easier to use, maintain, and enjoy.

Together, volunteers and residents installed a new automated drip irrigation system, added fresh compost, and refreshed the raised garden beds. Vital Roots Foundation has since returned to continue working alongside residents, including providing hands-on guidance so they can adjust the irrigation system based on what they choose to grow.

The partnership builds on Vital Roots Foundation’s mission to help veterans find healing, purpose, and community through nature and shared experiences. Looking ahead, Vital Roots Foundation is exploring opportunities to continue programming at Heroes Landing alongside Jamboree and other community partners.
