Are you "The Voice" of Garden Grove? The Garden Grove Community Foundation invites talented high school students enrolled in the Garden Grove Unified School District to compete in this singing competition for a chance to win a $500 scholarship and another $500 towards their school's choir program.

The vocal event is a pre-show to the Free Summer Concert Series at Eastgate Park, located at 12001 St. Mark Street, every Thursday, from July 18 to August 15, 2013.

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.

The 2013 GGCF/Chamber Golf Classic returns for an ninth year of fun and exciting tournament competition. The charity Golf Classic is used as a major fundraiser by both organizations to maintain and expand current programs for the residents and the business community.
