Rhode Sense and Move For Hunger Tackle Food Waste Together in New Partnership

March 6, 2025

Rhode Sense, a leading full-service freight brokerage, joins forces with Move For Hunger, a national non-profit organization dedicated to fighting hunger and reducing food waste nationwide. 

As part of Move For Hunger’s Charity Freight and Mover network, Rhode Sense is tackling hunger one transport at a time. With food insecurity affecting millions across the U.S., this collaboration will deliver 100,000 additional meals to communities in need this year. 

“We are thrilled to partner with Move For Hunger in this impactful initiative. By working together, we can help combat food insecurity and make a meaningful difference in the communities we serve,” said Tim Quirk, CEO of Rhode Sense. “This past fall I met a 13-year-old boy who asked if it was OK to put food on his Christmas list.  It was at that time that I knew  Rhode Sense needed to get involved and this collaboration reflects our commitment to giving back and supporting those in need, and we are excited to contribute to such an important cause.”

Since its founding in 2009, Move For Hunger has rescued more than 57 million lbs of food, providing over 47 million meals to food banks and pantries across the United States and Canada.

“We are thrilled to have Rhode Sense as part of the Move For Hunger network,” said Adam Lowy, Founder and Executive Director. “With 47 million Americans facing hunger every day, it’s more important now than ever to do what we can to reduce food waste and tackle hunger. Now, with Rhode Sense we’re making an even bigger impact!”

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.
