Caterina’s Club was founded in 2005 by Sir Bruno Serato who named the nonprofit after his beloved mother. In addition to feeding the children, the organization finds permanent homes for families in need and trains at-risk youth for careers in the food and hospitality industries. Serato also is owner of Anaheim White House Italian Steakhouse, a critically acclaimed restaurant whose patrons through the years include U.S. Presidents, royalty, sports stars, and celebrities.
For his humanitarian work, Bruno has earned international publicity including profiles in People Magazine, LA Times, “CBS Evening News,” “NBC Nightly News,” “ET,” “EXTRA,” “Access Hollywood” and countless other outlets. Among his many honors: CNN Hero, knighted by the Italian government, knighted by the House of Savoy, Ellis Island Medal of Honor, papal blessing from Pope Francis, humanitarian award on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, and numerous proclamations, Man of the Year awards and other forms of recognition -- all of which he accepts to generate public awareness of Caterina's Club.
