THE NEED HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER
After dealing with the effects of the pandemic, food insecure families are now struggling with skyrocketing grocery prices. Due to inflation, food prices have increased 13% percent. The cost of eggs shot up 38%, milk costs have increased nearly 16%, and fruits and veggies increased more than 9%.
A total of 38 million Americans including 1 in 6 children are food insecure. Communities with the highest levels of food insecurity before the pandemic, which are overrepresented by counties with a majority Black population, continue to struggle and are seeing the highest rates of food insecurity this year.
24 million meals & counting
Since the start of the pandemic, Move For Hunger has helped transport more meals than ever before, nearly 7 million. We have helped feed people in all 50 states and in Canada in order to help get them back on their feet.
Move For Hunger's network of 1,000+ moving companies is in a unique position to help food banks all across the country during these unprecedented times. Food banks need trucks to deliver supplies to their warehouses and distribution centers.
With a fleet of trucks, experienced drivers, and crews capable of doing the heavy lifting, our network can provide reliable transportation assistance and free up resources for the food banks to use elsewhere. Our team is working every day to connect moving companies that want to help with the food banks who so desperately need it.
