2024 Move for Hunger Food Drive

This Summer, Simpson Housing is once again teaming up with Move For Hunger to fight against food waste and food insecurity. Simpson first partnered with Move For Hunger back in 2022 by setting up stations where residents can drop off unopened food when they move in. These donation stations have become a permanent fixture in our communities, with many residents choosing to donate year-round.

The need for donations doesn’t change with the seasons so this summer, we are organizing yet another food drive at our communities. Running from Monday, June 17 to Saturday, June 29, the Move for Hunger Food drive is the perfect way to get rid of unopened food products in an ethical and eco-friendly way. Simpson residents can reach out to their onsite teams for more information.

Read on for more information on Move For Hunger and the impact our partnership has made.
