Move For Hunger mobilizes transportation networks to deliver surplus food to communities in need.
About us
Move For Hunger is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that mobilizes transportation networks to deliver surplus food to communities in need. As you may be aware, many people throw out a good deal of “stuff” when they move. Unfortunately, a lot of this “stuff” is food that could be delivered to a family in need rather than thrown away. That’s where we come in! Move For Hunger teams up with professional moving companies, corporate housing providers, relocation management companies, and multifamily apartment communities across the U.S. & Canada to rescue unopened, non-perishable food items from people moving and deliver it to local food banks. In addition to collecting food from people who are moving to new homes, Move For Hunger helps companies and individuals across the United States and Canada organize thousands of successful food drives and employee engagement events each year. Since its founding in 2009, Move For Hunger has delivered more than 32 million pounds of food - that's 26.5 million meals - to food banks and pantries nationwide.

Mover of the Month: December 2024 Each month, we celebrate a moving company that exemplifies the heart of our mission: turning every day into an opportunity to fight hunger. This December, we’re excited to honor The Moving Guys from Marlboro, NJ! Since joining in 2013, they’ve delivered an incredible 74,773 lbs of food, providing over 62,311 meals to those in need. From Donate Your Food When You Move to supporting bulk food recovery, our Transportation Network keeps our mission rolling, and The Moving Guys have been a cornerstone of that success. As the final Mover of the Month for 2024, we want to extend our deepest gratitude to The Moving Guys and all our Movers of the Month this year. Together, we’re proving that hunger is a problem we can solve, one delivery at a time. #MoveForHunger #EndHunger #MoverOfTheMonth

Team-building is always at the heart of what we do, but this time, it was our turn! The social committee hosted a virtual paint-and-sip event to celebrate the holidays. Each of us painted a piece of a larger mural, symbolizing the essence of our mission. The spoon and fork represent the meals transported by our network, the canned food symbolizes the impact of our food drives—and at the center? Love and support. We can’t wait to see all these pieces come together when we meet in person in 2025. #MoveForHunger #SeasonOfGiving #TeamBuilding
