CORT Collects Nearly 70,000 Pounds of Food with Move For Hunger in 2019

Furniture rental and retail company supports national nonprofit's mission to combat food insecurity.

CHANTILLY, VA / ACCESSWIRE / February 10, 2020 / Through its partnership with Move For Hunger, CORT, the nation's leading provider of transition services, gathered and delivered close to 70,000 pounds of food in 2019, the equivalent of 58,000 meals.

Move For Hunger, a nonprofit that mobilizes the relocation industry to reduce food waste and fight hunger, currently partners with more than 1,000 moving companies, realtors, corporate housing providers, relocation management companies and apartment communities across the United States and Canada to collect and deliver food to local food banks.

Because many people throw out or leave behind food when they move, Move For Hunger teams up with companies across the country like CORT to pick up the unwanted, non-perishable food items and deliver it to local food banks. CORT has been a Move For Hunger partner since 2017 and has activated the program in 57 districts, including Boston, Chicago, Seattle, and Washington, D.C.

"We are excited that CORT's support for Move For Hunger continues to gain momentum across our entire footprint in the United States," said Lisa Woodworth, Senior VP of Marketing at CORT. "Knowing that our contributions directly help families in our local communities that may be struggling with food insecurity makes the entire CORT team proud of this amazing partnership."

Since CORT's partnership began with Move For Hunger, the furniture rental company has delivered close to 84,000 meals to communities struggling with food insecurity in their signature red trucks. Boston, Chicago, Seattle, and Washington, DC, were the top CORT districts for collecting and delivering food donations in 2019. Among the four markets, Boston collected the most with 10,000 pounds of food, equating to 8,500 meals delivered.

"Reducing national food waste is our number one mission," said Adam Lowy, executive director, Move For Hunger. "Companies like CORT, with a commitment to giving back and close ties to apartment communities on a national level, allow us to rescue even more non-perishable food items and provide food for families who are less-fortunate."

Epische Goldpreisrallye
Der Goldpreis hat ein neues Rekordhoch überschritten. Die Marke von 3.500 US-Dollar ist gefallen, und selbst 4.000 US-Dollar erscheinen nur noch als Zwischenziel.

Die Rallye wird von mehreren Faktoren gleichzeitig getrieben:
  • · massive Käufe durch Noten- und Zentralbanken
  • · Kapitalflucht in sichere Häfen
  • · hohe Nachfrage nach physisch besicherten Gold-ETFs
  • · geopolitische Unsicherheit und Inflationssorgen

Die Aktienkurse vieler Goldproduzenten und Explorer sind in den vergangenen Wochen regelrecht explodiert.
