2026 MOVERS FOR MOMS®

Movers for Moms® 2026 – Supporting Child & Family Charities

This spring, we’re proud to kick off our annual Movers for Moms® campaign, running from March 30th through May 11th, with all donations benefiting Child & Family Charities. This incredible organization supports local families and individuals by providing essential resources, shelter, and care to those in need.

We’re calling on our community to come together and make a meaningful impact by donating everyday essential items for mothers and families who need them most. Every contribution—big or small—helps provide comfort, stability, and hope.

To make giving even more exciting, we’ll be hosting a special raffle at Beerfest at the Ballpark on May 9th:

• 1 donation = 1 raffle ticket
• The more you donate, the more chances you have to win
• Grand Prize: A $2,000 Cross Country Bicycle

It’s a simple way to give back while having a chance to win something amazing.

Let’s rally together to support moms in our community and show how powerful generosity can be.

Donate. Support. Make a difference.

Child and family charities was established in 1911 as the Ingham County branch of Michigan children’s aid society.  The founding purpose was “ to secure for every child the same love and the same opportunity that we would have our children receive should they be left orphaned or friendless.”  Over the years, the agency has evolved into a multi-service organization serving the Mid-Michigan region.

The Ronald McDonald House of Mid-Michigan began as a dream of community leaders, healthcare professionals and parent advocates in Lansing, Michigan in 1996. These community members came together to address an important need: How to best care for the many families who come to Mid-Michigan for medical treatment for their seriously ill or injured children.Too often these parents were forced to sleep in waiting rooms or cramped hospital rooms, bathe in bathroom sinks and eat out of vending machines while their child was hospitalized — difficult conditions during their most tragic times. There had to be a better way.

St. Vincent Catholic Charities (STVCC) has provided students in the Lansing area with proper school supplies for thirteen years through Operation Backpack. With the help of local businesses, STVCC collects backpacks and school supplies during July and August each year. Before the start of school, the backpacks are stuffed with paper, pencils and other supplies in order to provide students with everything they need to succeed in the upcoming year.

Ele's Place(opens in a new window) is a healing center for grieving children and teens.  Four branch locations support families throughout the Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, Flint and Lansing areas and beyond.  Each week, peer support group programs help hundreds of children, ages 3-18, learn how to cope and begin to heal after the death of a parent, sibling or other loved one.

With more than 100 years of volunteer service, City Rescue Mission is dedicated to meeting the physical and spiritual needs of men, women, and children in the Lansing area. They provide food, shelter, and hope to Lansing residents daily and are once again thrilled to be a part of the Movers for Moms® campaign.

Haven House provides emergency housing and support service for single-parent and two-parent families that are homeless and looking for stability. Since opening their doors in 1983, Haven House has developed programs for the families that walk through their doors that will make an impact on their lives after they leave the shelter. These programs improve people’s lives through goal setting, training, and education shaped around the resident’s needs.

Habitat for Humanity Lansing was established in 1987 by a group of passionate volunteers. These volunteers worked tirelessly to fundraise, acquire land, select families, and manage all the logistics to build the first Habitat homes in Lansing. Since then, Habitat Lansing has continues building homes, opened a successful ReStore, and expanded the program to critical home repairs and handicap accessibility ramps!

Angel House is a residential program for young, single mothers. Since 1911,Child and Family Charities, the governing agency of Angel House, has been protecting and strengthening families in mid-Michigan. This non-profit organization addresses the needs of victims of abuse, neglect, and at-risk children while helping them overcome life’s obstacles. With the support of local businesses, such as Michigan State University Federal Credit Union, Capital Area District Library, Dart Bank and more, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® is confident that each year we will not only continue to grow in donations with the Movers for Moms® campaign, but more importantly that we can also continue to brighten Mother’s Day for the women in need at local homeless and domestic violence shelters.

Since we launched our new Junk Removal(opens in a new window) service in 2020, we've been constantly working to come up with ideas to get rid of the items in the most sustainable way possible. While we are still working towards that, we wanted to announce a partnership with Habitat for Humanity Capital Region to help us reduce the impact on the environment. Habitat for Humanity(opens in a new window) is a nonprofit organization that helps families find affordable housing. We are so excited to work with them and to be a small part of helping people find safe and affordable shelter in the Lansing Area! 

Below is a list of items that we will currently be donating to Habitat for Humanity Capital Region; the list is limited, but it changes based on their needs. We will provide updated information as it becomes available.

When we launched our Junk Removal program in 2020, one of our biggest concerns was how we could minimize trips to the dump to reduce environmental impact. Our Junk Sales Consultant Jamison Fuentes then established our TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Lansing Junk Repurpose program. His vision was to not only reduce the environmental impact of disposing of unwanted items but also to align his efforts with our core value of "Giving Back to the Community." He created a Facebook page where gently used items that we receive from junk jobs are listed for free, and people in need can come and pick them up. 

We also started a partnership with Child and Family Charities to furnish the new homes/apartments of young women who have graduated from their Angel House and Haven House facilities. In the above picture, we got the privilege of moving one of these young women into her new home fully furnished with items that we collected from our Junk Removal Service!
