Core Value: Giving Back to the Community

In association with Thanksgiving, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® partners with the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank to collect canned goods and nonperishable items to donate to their warehouse. During our campaign we host a Donations Day Food Drive at a local grocery store.
