"At ATG, giving back to our communities by helping to fight hunger and food insecurity is one of our top priorities," says Kevin G. Holems, president and CEO of ATG. "We are grateful for the continued support our employees, customers and business partners have for Haulin' 4 Hunger and their commitment to help meet increased demand our food pantries are facing during the holidays and throughout the year."
ATG will deliver the meals to 13 food pantries from Dec. 12-21. On Dec. 15, ATG and Haulin' 4 Hunger will leave the Shrewsbury, Massachusetts, dealership with 4,200 turkey meals with all the trimmings. ATG will also bring meals to the Boys & Girls Club of Worcester, Friendly House, Jeremiah's Inn, Malborough Community Cupboard, South Worcester Neighborhood Center, St. Anne's Human Services and Veterans Inc.
It will also distribute nonperishable meals in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont through the LISTEN Food Pantry, New Hampshire Food Bank, Our Community Table, Our Place Drop-In Center, Raynham Food Basket and the Seabrook Food Pantry.
"The holidays are especially difficult for those struggling to put food on their table. Organizations we support are serving more people now than during the pandemic, with some seeing visits to their pantries this holiday season more than double compared to last year," says ATG Integrated Marketing Manager Sarah Harrington, leader of the Haulin' 4 Hunger program.
Haulin' 4 Hunger partners also include Dennis K. Burke, G. Lopes Construction, SelecTrucks of New England, Worcester Railers HC and UniBank. Since 2012, Haulin' 4 Hunger has delivered more than 34,000 meals.
