August 27, 2024

After being part of our network for many years, Montway Auto Transport  committed to making an even bigger impact by partnering with Move For Hunger, providing an additional 120,000 meals to communities in need this year alone.

Since their relationship with Move For Hunger began, Montway has provided nearly 700,000 meals through various support and food drives.
 

“Partnering with Move for Hunger aligns with our core values of compassion, integrity, and community engagement. Through this collaboration, we aim to turn each move into an opportunity to help those in need, ensuring that surplus food reaches families facing hunger. Montway believes that everyone has a role to play in building stronger, healthier communities and encourages our customers, partners, and employees to join us in supporting Move for Hunger's critical mission.” 
- Lubo Lazaro, Director of Moving and Relocation, Montway Auto Transport


Throughout the month of June, Montway Auto Transport collaborated with Move For Hunger and other sponsors to launch the fourth annual Move 2 Fight Hunger Challenge. With more than 600 participants joining together to fight hunger nationwide, the month-long challenge provided over 144,500 meals.


“We are so excited to have Montway as an official partner,” Adam Lowy, Founder of Move For Hunger said. “They’re starting off their partnership with a bang by sponsoring and participating in the Move 2 Fight Hunger Challenge, supporting our mission to combat hunger.”


Move For Hunger was founded in 2009 by Adam Lowy and now has built out an elaborate network of supporters. It includes over 1,200 moving companies, including many of the world’s leading relocation management companies, and more than 3,000 multifamily apartment communities. Move For Hunger has provided over 45 million pounds of food, equaling more than 38 million meals, across the U.S. and Canada. 


In addition to their extensive support, Montway is also powering our Mover of the Month series, which highlights a moving company that has gone above and beyond in the fight against hunger. This sponsorship not only provides visibility but also encourages others in the industry to join the cause.

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.

September 22: The USDA announced termination of future Household Food Security Reports USDA, which had tracked hunger nationwide for nearly 30 years.

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.
