2016 Partner Movers of the Year

January 12, 2017

2016 was an amazing year for Move For Hunger. Increased participation within the relocation industry allowed our network to collect more than 1.4 million lbs. of food in the past year. We never would have thought that, in just a few short years, Move For Hunger would be able to deliver over 7.6 million pounds of food food banks and pantries all across the United States and Canada. We cannot thank our partners enough for their enthusiasm and support of our mission to end hunger. Each year, Move For Hunger is able to honor members from our partnering van lines and associations who have gone above and beyond to give back to their communities. These members have embraced the Move For Hunger spirit by incorporating fighting hunger into the way they do business. Throughout this past year, these members have hosted food drives, assisted community food banks, teamed up with local businesses, and joined our race team, all in the name of hunger relief. Without further ado... here are Move For Hunger's 2016 Partner Movers of the Year! Once again, a huge thank you to all of our network for your efforts to fight hunger and reduce food waste.

Inflation & food insecurity are on the rise

Cuts to SNAP benefits and inflation have had a devastating economic impact and filled the lines at food banks and pantries across the country. More than 47 million Americans including 1 in 5 children are struggling with food insecurity and do not know where their next meal is coming from. 

For people of color and other minorities, the situation is even worse. Hunger disproportionately affects the Black population, the Latinx community, LGBTQ+ individuals, and more. 

USDA TERMINATES FOOD SECURITY REPORT 

September 22: The USDA announced termination of future Household Food Security Reports USDA, which had tracked hunger nationwide for nearly 30 years. The most recent data revealed that one in seven households — 47.4 million people, including 13.8 million children — were food insecure. For more than three decades, the report was been the gold standard for measuring whether a household lacks consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life. “Eliminating data collection strips away the evidence that proves these programs work, where investment is needed, and who is being left out,” Crystal FitzSimons, president, Food Research & Action Center said in a statement.
