We always look forward to the fall season here at Move For Hunger. The leaves change color, Thanksgiving approaches, and the summer heat finally subsides. This time around, we were a little extra excited for fall after hearing that City Transfer & Storage was bringing back their annual food drive!
The Atlas Van Lines agents have dedicated their November to their community for the past 4 years. Once again, the food drive was held at both of their offices in High Point and Winston Salem, NC. Employees, clients, and members of the community were all encouraged to donate items, such as pasta, cereal, peanut butter, and other nonperishables. Even after already collecting over 3,800 pounds of food in previous years, City Transfer & Storage's desire to give back still grows strong. Their 5th time around absolutely proved this, because they collected another 740 pounds lbs. of food!
City Transfer & Storage collected enough food to provide more than 600 meals to North Carolina families in need. After the food is delivered to the Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest North Carolina, it will go straight to the 315,000 people, including 1 in 5 children, in the Northwest of the state who are food insecure. Thank you so much to City Transfer & Storage for all of your hard work and dedication to your community this fall. We hope to do it again in 2019!
