Associa's Great Giveback Food Drive & Fundraiser 2021

October 5, 2021

Now, this is an amazing example of making a huge impact on your first day. Associa knocked it out of the park with their first event, a national, company-wide food drive, and fundraiser! 

From the first of August to the 31st, Associa, a national homeowners association that specializes in nationwide property management, held a food drive and a fundraiser that provided an incredible 40,000 meals to help those in need.  Between the fundraiser and food drive, Associa was able to bring in $10,865 (translating to 27,500 meals) and the food drive of 12,000 meal donations. Associa Arizona.jpg

During the month of August, Associa held the food drive over 31 out of their 72 total locations in 50 states plus British Columbia. What makes this event so special is how this is the very first event that Associa has done with Move For Hunger.

Right now, the nation as a whole has about 42,000,000 people that are food insecure. That roughly translates to about 1 in 8 people. 

With so much food being donated, Associa will take a small bite out of hunger. We are so glad and thankful to have been a part of this fundraiser and food drive. Want to help? Visit our Fundraiser or Food Drive page to learn more!

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.
