ORANGEVALE-FAIR OAKS, CA (MPG) - There’s a new guy heading up the Orangevale-Fair Oaks Community Foundation (OVFOCF)! Welcome to Josh Hall who’s to step in for longtime community organizer Brad Squires who led the organization from its inception. Squires established the Orangevale-Fair Oaks Food Bank and then the OVFOCF which oversees multiple community programs serving the Orangevale and Fair Oaks areas. He’ll remain on the organization’s board of directors and will continue supporting Josh and the team as they expand the work being done for many years to come.

As the new Executive Director, Josh will oversee the day-to-day operations of the ever-expanding community service organization including the Orangevale-Fair Oaks Food Bank, The Big Day of Service, the Homeless Assistance Outreach Team (HART) and the Orangevale Teen Council (OTC).

“We are very excited to have Josh on board to lead the way,” said Brad Squires, “The foundation is in great hands, and I look forward to working alongside him to expand our programs that help Orangevale and Fair Oaks communities flourish.”

Josh is no stranger to the community, having moved to Sacramento in 2004, then leaving for a few years before returning to the area in 2016. It is here that he and his wife Kelly and their family have made their home in Fair Oaks. Prior to his new position as Executive Director, Josh served as Lead Pastor of Fair Oaks Church where he began partnering with OVFOCF including being part of the first Big Day of Service in 2018.

“Kelly and I love this community,” said Josh, “We’ve been growing and serving in new ways in recent years with HART, Big Day, OTC, and working to build on the strong foundation of our local community. I’m thrilled to help serve and continue to lead and help the foundation continue to flourish in the days ahead.”
