HD Auston Moving Systems Holds Their First Food Drive!

December 7, 2018

There are currently 40 million people in the United States who are struggling with food insecurity. At Move For Hunger, we are committed to shrinking this number for good, and it's our dedicated and kind movers that can make it all possible. One of those movers is HD Auston Moving Systems in Greenville, SC.

After joining our network last year, HD Auston decided to dedicate the fall season to giving back to the community. Their plan? A food drive! The team had never hosted a one before, but with Thanksgiving quickly approaching, they knew that the timing could not be anymore perfect. After setting up boxes, and encouraging the community to bring donations, we are happy to report that HD Auston collected nearly 250 pounds of food! That's enough to provide more than 206 meals!

After the drive, all the donations were delivered to Harvest Hope Food Bank in Columbia. The food collected will go straight to helping the 687,000 people, including 1 in 6 children, in South Carolina who are food insecure.

Thanks so much to HD Auston for taking the time to make a difference and help provide Thanksgiving meals for families in need. We are so happy that we could be a part of your first food drive and hope to do many more with you!
