Hall Lane Moving and Storage, based in Commack, NY, wanted to do something for the people who were affected by Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. The movers help out with the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk at Jones Beach every year. More than 80,000 people attend the annual event, and Hall Lane Moving and Storage recognized that this would be a great place to collect donations for the victims of the devastating storm.
Hall Lane Moving and Storage set up a truck at the walk and their goal was to fill the trailer with non-perishable food and toiletries. They also had collection boxes set up at different stands, including the Girl Scouts of Nassau, Signature Premier Properties, and Coldwell Banker Residential.
Hall Lane Moving and Storage managed to collect more than 1,000 pounds of food - enough to provide 830 meals. The food was delivered to Long Island Cares and all of the food collected will eventually be distributed to Puerto Rico to help the hurricane victims. What a great way to get community members together and step up to help those in need!
Have a great event idea? We'd love to help you make it a reality!
