Our friends at Crossfit Delirium hosted a food drive from November 1 through the end of 2016 to support their community
during the holiday season. Gym members and the local community were asked to drop off non-perishable items at Crossfit Delirium’s fitness center in Eatontown, NJ to help support the effort.
Last year, they collected 134 pounds of food and the Crossfit Delirium crew crushed it again in 2016 by bringing in more than 150 pounds of food - that's enough to provide 130 meals for their neighbors in need!
Lowy’s Moving Service, a Wheaton agent, volunteered to assist with the event by donating boxes and picking up/delivering the donations to the FoodBank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
Did you know that nearly 120,000 people, including 1 in 6 children, in Monmouth and Ocean Counties are struggling with food insecurity? Those are staggering numbers, and we're grateful for partners like Crossfit Delirium and Lowy's Moving Service who recognize the problem and decide to take action.
If you would like to get involved in helping your community by holding your own food drive, let us know! We would love you help you organize it!
