It comes as no surprise that many of us look forward to the summer months. The weather is warm, our favorite ice cream shops open for the season, and we are greeted with the one and only Shark Week! While most spend these 7 days watching Discovery Channel, IMC Marketing in Holmdel, NJ wanted to dive into summer by hosting a Shark Week food drive.
From July 22-29, employees were encouraged to help fight food insecurity in New Jersey by donating non-perishables, including canned tuna, salmon, and more. At the end of the week, IMC reeled in 290 pounds of food - that's the equivalent 245 meals! The food was then transported to Fulfill with the help of The Moving Guys, a valued member of the Move For Hunger network who volunteered their time to assist.
Just over 100,000 people in Monmouth and Ocean Counties are food insecure, including 1 in 8 children. Thank you so much to IMC Holmdel and The Moving Guys for their fin-tastic effort in the fight against hunger right in our home state!
