Imagine a parent not having enough food for their children. Picture the elderly man next door who couldn’t quite stretch his social security check through the month, so he’ll have to go without food until payday. These and other heartbreaking scenarios play out every single day right here in our own community.
The numbers are shocking. Statistics show that 1 in 8 children in South Dakota are food insecure—a fancy way of saying they don’t get enough to eat and may not know when their next meal will come. Brouwer Relocation has decided to join the fight against hunger by supporting the efforts of Move for Hunger. This organization, which began in 2009, teams up with moving companies to reduce waste and reroute food that would be thrown away to those in need.
This simple concept has helped feed thousands of people since the program began, and we are proud to be one small part of this creative solution. We thank you for choosing us as your moving company, and now we ask that you’ll consider donating your unwanted food to those in our community who are often overlooked.
How to Donate
Help us support Move for Hunger by donating your unwanted food. It might seem like a small thing, but it’s huge to those parents who won’t have to put their kids to bed hungry.
Your small act of kindness will make a big difference to the hungry in our community.
