What is a truck pull?

Here’s the deal: we tie a big rope to a moving truck and teams of 10 people compete to see who can pull it 100 feet in the fastest time. Trust us, it’s as much fun as it sounds!

3 Goals of a Truck Pull

Create Awareness
Bring your community together by shining a spotlight on both hunger and food waste.

Raise Money
To support Move For Hunger’s hunger relief and food rescue programs.

Have Fun!
It’s not as difficult as it looks, especially when you’re working together with your friends, family, and/or coworkers!

Fundraising

Truck Pulls should raise a minimum of $10,000 through team registration and sponsorships.

Participants make a donation to enter the competition. We suggest $20 per person/$200 per team. Our Development Team will assist with finding & securing sponsors.
