The Corporate Housing Providers Association (CHPA) always makes it a priority to coordinate volunteer opportunities in the cities where they host events. On November 8-9, CHPA held its East Regional Conference in Washington, D.C. and they kicked off the event by spending a couple of hours at the Capital Area Food Bank.
Representatives from Attache Corporate Housing, Corporate Housing By Owner, The Manor Group, Maryland Relocation, NEST Furnished Living Solutions, Northeast Suites, Princeton Properties Management, UrHomeinPhilly, and Zenya helped sort donations at the largest food bank in the Washington metro area.
CHPA was only in town for a few days, and it would have been easy for conference attendees to spend their free time sightseeing in our nation's capital. Instead of taking selfies, they acted selflessly.
This volunteer opportunity was just the latest example of CHPA's commitment to fighting hunger in the United States. In May, their volunteers helped prepare more than 3,000 meals at the Central Texas Food Bank in Austin and in February they lent a hand at the Someone Cares Soup Kitchen in Costa Mesa, CA. They've literally helped fight hunger from coast to coast this year.
Thank you to all of the CHPA members who sacrificed their personal time to help sort through box after box of non-perishable food last week. And a very special thank you to Christine Saricos and Mary Ann Passi from CHPA for all the work you did to help make this volunteer shift possible.
