Early Horizons Childcare Center, a pre-school in Sunnyvale, California, hosted a holiday food drive from November 21 - December 16 in an effort to help put food on the plates of people struggling with food insecurity.
Students, teachers, parents, and other members of the local community were encouraged to donate non-perishable food items, such as canned vegetables, pasta, rice, beans, tuna, and peanut butter. The food drive proved to be a huge success as a grand total of 360 pounds of food was collected - that equates to about 300 meals!
Silicon Valley Moving and Storage generously provided boxes for the event and delivered the donations to Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara & San Mateo Counties.
There are 5.4 million people facing hunger in California, including 1 in 4 children. Thank you to everyone at Early Horizons Childcare Center and the crew of Silicon Valley Moving and Storage for making a difference in your community this holiday season.
Anyone can host a food drive. We can help!
