Move For Hunger\u2019s network of more than 1,000 moving companies, more than 1,500 multifamily apartment communities, and many of the world\u2019s leading relocation management companies, volunteer to collect this unopened, non-perishable food and deliver it to their local food banks. To date, Move For Hunger\u2019s network of relocation professionals and multifamily properties has collected and delivered more than 19 million pounds of food \u2013 providing 16 million meals \u2013 to food banks and pantries across the United States and Canada.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership will enable Respage to support Move For Hunger\u2019s food rescue programs and encourage the clients, associations, and property management companies they work with to integrate the Move For Hunger model into the moving out process for residents. It will also provide the opportunity to continue to expand the Move For Hunger network: a robust community of engaged individuals that want to make a difference in the lives of others and have the resources available to create large scale change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPartnering with Respage both complements and advances our mission, so this collaboration was a natural fit,\u201d said Adam Lowy, Executive Director and Founder of Move For Hunger. \u201cWith such devastating hunger statistics all around the country, the support of Respage will help strengthen our efforts and allow us to provide meals to those struggling to put food on the table.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we discovered Move For Hunger, it was clear that this was an organization that was a perfect fit for Respage. Our partnership is an important milestone in our commitment to give back to our communities and help support those less fortunate than ourselves,\u201d said Jackie Koehler, CEO of Respage. \u201cToday more than ever, people around the country \u2013 and the world \u2013 are struggling with hunger issues, and we are dedicated to making a positive impact within this cause through our work in multifamily.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rates of household food insecurity are going to remain high for the foreseeable future.
