Apex Moving + Storage Collects Helps a Pair of Schools Collect 2,500 LBS. of Food!

November 9, 2018

If you've been keeping up with Move For Hunger recently, you have probably seen the incredible accomplishments that our network of movers has made in 2018. From food drives and fundraisers to food rescues and more, our movers have collected more than 1.7 million of food this year for families all across the United States. One of those super dedicated companies is Apex Moving + Storage, an Atlas Van Lines agent, and we are so happy to hear that they are back at it with another pair of food drives! Throughout the year, Apex Moving + Storage has partnered with various schools in the greater Nashville area to host food drives and help out their communities. This time around, they joined forces with both Stewarts Creek Middle School and Stewarts Creek Elementary School of Smyrna, TN. What’s great about Apex Moving + Storage partnering with schools is that it teaches young students the importance of giving back, and they sure did give back! In fact, Stewarts Creek Elementary School collected 1,269 lbs. of food! The middle school also did an awesome job and collected 1,578 pounds! The Apex team delivered all the donations to the Nourish Food Bank in Smyrna, providing nearly 2,400 meals for Tennessee families in need. With more than 967,000 people in Tennessee facing food insecurity, including 1 in 6 children, Apex Moving + Storage will make a positive difference in so many lives. They have collected well over 10,000 pounds of food this year, and even after so many successful food drives, it's so great to hear that they still have many lined up for the rest of 2018! To the Apex team, thank you so much for joining us in the fight against hunger - we are incredibly inspired by you! You can host your own food drive, and we can help you get started. Click here!
