EAGAN, MN – Alexander’s Mobility Services, an Atlas Van Lines agent, of Minneapolis has been recognized by Move For Hunger for delivering 43,000 pounds of food – enough to provide 36,000 meals – to the Neighbors, Inc., a social services agency in South St. Paul. People tend to throw a lot of “stuff” away when they move, including perfectly good food.
As part of Move For Hunger’s national network of relocation professionals, Alexander’s Mobility Services provides their customers with the opportunity to donate unopened, non-perishable food during the moving process and volunteers to deliver the donations to the food bank, free of charge. Alexander’s Mobility Services also assists with the annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive by picking up the donations from post offices in the area and delivering them to Neighbors, Inc.
“The work that Alexander’s Mobility Services is doing to fight hunger in the Twin Cities area is inspiring,” said Adam Lowy, Executive Director of Move For Hunger. “They are passionate about the cause and we are so grateful for all of their support.”
"We are so proud to support the Move For Hunger program,” said Kevin Quagliano, General Manager of Alexander’s Mobility Services. “It gives our employees a chance to give back to our community."
