Santa Barbara Moving & Storage Company Helps End Hunger

April 3, 2014 – Santa Barbara, CA. Hazelwood Allied Moving and Storage is proud to announce their participation in the Move for Hunger Food Drive at Santa Barbara Community College. SBCC students are organizing the food drive on campus, with all collections to be donated to the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County. Hazelwood Allied is contributing the boxes to hold the donations and will be transporting them to the Foodbank once the drive has ended.

"We are grateful to be able to give back to this community, and especially pleased to be able to contribute to such an important cause, because, really, no one should be left hungry. We're thankful we have the resources to assist in the carriage and transport of the donations these students are able to collect," says Casey McCann, co-owner of Hazelwood Allied, Santa Barbara Moving and Storage Company.

The food drive will be going on until April 11th, so anyone wanting to contribute can do so by dropping off their canned goods or other non-perishable food items into the designated boxes at the Transfer Center located in the Student Services Building located on campus at 721 Cliff Drive. Additional questions regarding the student run food drive can be directed to Pablo Diaz at (805) 965-0581 x3783.

Additionally, in order to provide much healthier fresh food options, the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County is accepting monetary contributions. For every $1 of direct monetary contribution, the Foodbank can provide $17 worth of fresh food to the hungry. Click on the donation link to contribute a dollar amount of any preference. Additionally, more information is also available at the Foodbank SBC website.

Assisting with the coordination of this effort is the Move for Hunger organization, which teams up with moving companies across the country to move unwanted, non-perishable food items from those who are moving and deliver it to their local food banks. As an affiliated mover, Hazelwood Allied is also available to assist those who are relocating by collecting their unwanted food items that can go to help a family in need instead of going to waste.
