Each month, we highlight one of the moving companies in our network for their extraordinary commitment to fighting hunger in their community. We are excited to announce that White Glove Moving, Storage & Delivery is our Mover of the Month for July, 2016!
White Glove, based in Vero Beach, Florida, has been a member of the Move For Hunger program since June of 2013. Earlier this summer, they rallied over a dozen local businesses to host a massive food drive to fight hunger along Florida's Treasure Coast area.
The combined effort resulted in nearly 1,600 pounds of food being delivered to the Treasure Coast Food Bank during the time of year when it needs help the most.
White Glove has also played a big role in the annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, when postal workers from all over the country urge their residents to leave donations of non-perishable food items on their porch or near their mailbox. Last year, White Glove volunteered its time and resources to pick-up & deliver over 8,000 lbs of food, which greatly eased the burden on the Treasure Coast Food Bank.
“The biggest benefit we get is the satisfaction in knowing how many families we are helping,” said Anna Valencia-Tillery, White Glove's Vice President of Marketing, in a recent interview. “The gratitude we receive from each member of the food bank’s staff is very encouraging and hearing what this does for the folks they serve warms our hearts."
Since becoming a member of the Move For Hunger family just over three years go, White Glove Moving, Storage & Delivery has delivered 14,871 lbs of food – that’s the equivalent of 12,392 meals!
Congratulations to White Glove Moving, Storage & Delivery on this much-deserved recognition. Thank you for commitment to reducing food waste and fighting hunger in the Sunshine State!
