The event will take place on Wednesday, June 4 from 11:30 a.m. – 1 p.m. The event will honor iHerb as the 2014 National Corporate Donor of the Year and Second Harvest Food Bank of Riverside & San Bernardino Counties as the 2014 Local Corporate Donor of the Year.

Knight of Celebration Worship Church will give the Keynote Address. The Salvation Army Divisional Commander Major Lee Lescano will conduct the installation of the newest Salvation Army Moreno Valley Advisory Board members. New members include Corey Jackson (Sigma Beta Xi), Richard Archer (Moreno Valley Cultural Arts Foundation) and Sergeant Melvin “Butch” Rasmussen (Moreno Valley Police).
