2022 Collaborative Food Drive!
12/29/2022 (Permalink)
Back in November of 2014, we launched what is now referred to as our SERVPRO Collaborative Food Drive. The idea behind the drive was to try and make it easier for businesses and community members to collect and donate non-perishable food items to local food banks. We deliver collection boxes to local businesses that would like to participate, and we return 2-3 weeks later to pick up the boxes. We then load all the boxes into one of our trucks and deliver them to either the NH or VT food banks.
Back in 2014, we were joined by seven gracious local businesses who contributed to our inaugural campaign. We were well on our way and considered the first effort to be a huge success.
After stepping away from the food drive in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic, we decided it was time to bring the event back for 2022. We were blown away by the support and involvement by our friends and business partners throughout the community. Over 30 local businesses, and 1 school, joined in for this year's event! We're extremely excited to report that with the collaborative effort of these community partners, we were able to donate a total of 2,054 pounds of food! Over 1 ton! This is all thanks to the support of these local businesses and schools!
We're so thankful to be a part of such a generous and thoughtful community. Thank you to all that supported the event, and we can't wait to do it all over again in 2023!
