Upload your personal picture and information and you’re ready to go! Gather donations from friends, family, coworkers and anyone who wants to help us fight hunger in America. You’ll receive bi-monthly newsletters filled with great information to help you cross the finish line, all while your fundraising donations enable us to continue our lifesaving services.

What do my donations do?

By becoming a member of Team Move For Hunger , your fundraising donations go to keep the food banks in Virginia stocked and meals on the table. Our network of relocation industry specialists help to reduce food waste and deliver much needed food to our local food banks. With over 48,000 residents in the Virginia Beach area that are food insecure, your help is needed more than ever! With 96% of every dollar donated going back to our hunger relief and food rescue programs, you can be assured that your miles are turned into meals for those in need. In the last five years, we have delivered over 4.7 million pounds of food - let's keep it moving!
