Western Express Congratulates Philanthropic Partner, Move for Hunger

Hunger Relief Charity Delivers Milestone Achievement

Hyattsville, MD- Western Express, the Global Moving and Relocation Company, congratulates philanthropic partner, Move for Hunger, a nationwide hunger relief organization based in Neptune, NJ for moving more than 1,000,000 lbs. of food! The organization collected the provisions for donations from their extensive network, of which Western Express is a member, hitting the million pound milestone in December 2012. “All of us at Western Express are deeply impressed with Move for Hunger’s achievement,” said Senior Executive Pavlos C. Livanios. “We are proud to support this outstanding organization that literally puts the old saying, ‘one person’s trash is another’s treasure’ into action,” he said.

“We’d like to thank our partners from across the relocation industry for their continued support in helping to cross this major milestone and we look forward to expanding our fight against hunger to deliver at least 1,000,000 lbs. every year,” said Move for Hunger’s Founder and Executive Director, Adam Lowy. “During a move, many individuals throw away canned goods and other provisions without ever considering the difference they could impress on another’s life,” said Livanios. “It’s truly amazing to think we have been able to impact so many people in just 3 years,” said Lowy. “With Move for Hunger’s impressive record, Western Express will continue supporting the organization as long as we continue relocating families and individuals,” said Livanios. Western Express is one of 650 relocation companies working with Move for Hunger. The non-profit company partners with members of the relocation industry to collect non-perishable food items from those who are relocating and delivers those items to the people who need it most. Since its founding in 2009, more than 1,080,000 lbs. of food has been delivered to food banks across the United States and Canada. Thanks to the collaborative efforts of the movers, real estate professionals and move managers who make up the Move for Hunger network, 830,000 plus meals have been provided to those in need.
