Events Interns Needed for Summer 2015!

Save to Favorites

Move For Hunger is a non-profit organization that works with relocation companies to strengthen the efforts of our community’s food banks.

As you may be aware, many people throw out a good deal of "stuff" when they move. Unfortunately, a lot of this "stuff" is food that could be delivered to a family in need rather than thrown away. That’s where we come in ...

By teaming up with relocation companies across the country, Move For Hunger is creating one of the nation’s largest year-round service programs. Our movers offer to pick up the unwanted, non-perishable food items from those who are moving and deliver them to their local food banks.

To date, Move For Hunger has partnered with over 600 movers in 47 states. Together we have delivered more than 3,500,000 lbs. of food to those in need.
