TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®- Clarkson is hosting its first Movers for Meals® collection drive to provide nonperishable food items to families with the goal of putting more food on tables.
First launched in 2010 by TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®, our Movers for Meals program seeks to help families facing hunger by donating nonperishable food items for Thanksgiving. In recent years, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK locations across the country have collected more than 5,000 lbs., of food for families living in hunger.
This year, we are partnering with Lighthouse. Lighthouse provides emergency shelter, housing assistance programs, and food pantries across Oakland County. Lighthouse has a goal of providing Thanksgiving dinner boxes to 1,500 families in need this year. Collection efforts will run thought November 22, the Friday before Thanksgiving. Donations can be dropped off at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK- Clarkston and the Clarkston Area Chamber of Commerce!
We are very thankful for the spotlight the Clarkston Chamber of Commerce is placing on the Movers For Meals collection drive! Its so wonderful to be a part of a chamber that supports not only its members but the community.
