Armbruster Moving and Storage Flexes New Truck Wrap at GLRC Truck Pull

August 15, 2022

GLRCClevelandTruckPull2022-98-min.JPGArmbruster Moving and Storage, an agent for Mayflower Van Lines, and the Greater Lakes Relocation Council partnered with Move For Hunger to host a truck pull at the Great Lakes Relocation Conference (GLRC) to raise awareness for the over 38 million food insecure people in America. The lively event raised over 53,000 meals for those in need.

The truck pull, a Move For Hunger signature event, took place in Cleveland, Ohio at The Flats East Bank. In a truck pull, teams of about 10 people pull a rope attached to a moving truck 100 feet across the finish line. Whichever team is able to pull the truck in the quickest time wins bragging rights and an awesome trophy!

The winning team of the truck pull was the Cleveland Police Department - D4 with an incredible time of just under 15 seconds. Second place went to Mortgage Hall of Famers with a 15.01 second time, and third place was the Armbruster team at 16.2 seconds!GLRCClevelandTruckPull2022-304-min.JPG

Just in time for the event, Armbruster Moving and Storage, located in Brunswick, Ohio, completed their first truck wrap! This is the first truck wrap of several completed as part of Mayflower’s partnership with Move For Hunger. Armbruster has been a dedicated member of Move For Hunger’s network since 2012. Since joining the network, they’ve helped provide over 18,700 meals to those in need. 

“We truly believe in community. We believe in investing in our local community by making our local community a better place for all,” said Gus GLRCClevelandTruckPull2022-142-min.JPGArmbruster, Business Development Manager. “Move For Hunger aligns with our beliefs and allows us to directly utilize our assets (truck and people) to transport food to those in need in our local community. We also believe in minimizing our waste footprint. Being a good neighbor means reaching out with a helping hand when times are tough and that is why we partnered with Move For Hunger - to offer that helping hand to those in our community who are food insecure.”

We’re incredibly thankful for the sponsors and supporting sponsors of the event: GLRC, Kroger, Armbruster Moving and Storage, Rocket Mortgage, National Corporate Housing, Adam Klein, Eric Stine, Diane Ayers, Punch Bowl Social, and Beerhead. A huge thank you as well goes out to all of the participants who made this an awesome event, and The Flats East Bank for providing the space for the event to happen.

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.
