Meanwhile, 38% of food in the U.S. goes to waste each year. Partnerships like this ensure we can continue to do the work and bring surplus food to those who need it most. 'As a part of our wider ESG priorities, we're especially thrilled to be enabling the option for the hundreds of clients and thousands of families we move in the region, to support via the direct donation of excess non-perishable foods. Not only providing meals to families for whom it will make a huge difference, but in doing so, also helping families to ship mindfully, reducing waste, and lowering the impact of shipments by reducing unnecessary volume – All in all, helping us support people with moving better!' said Andrew Conduit-Turner, Director: Sustainability & Strategic Development. Since its founding in 2009, Move For Hunger has rescued more than 58 million pounds of food, providing over 48 million meals to food banks and pantries across the United States and Canada.
