Featured Community Service
The Father Fred Foundation
During this freezing and slow month of February our team stayed busy helping out The Father Fred Foundation. We were able to collect their donation boxes as well as sorting at their warehouse. Our CORE PURPOSE as you may know is to MOVE PEOPLE FORWARD®. That is why we take every chance we get to give back to the community and lend a hand to local charities.

TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Campaigns

We are gathering partners now so please contact our office if you are interested in assisting with this cause!

Movers for Moms®
We would like to thank everyone that helped make this year's MOVERS FOR MOMS® campaign a success. We were able to support two organizations that make a difference in our community by collecting many donations to deliver for Mother's Day. This is a yearly campaign that we have been a part of since it began in 2007 and we are already looking forward to next year.
Special thanks to Oleson's, Long Lake Elementary, and Blair Elementary for hosting boxes for donations. Having locations around town to make donating convenient is essential to the success of this effort to support mothers in need.
We also want to shout out The Womans Resource Center and Generations Ahead, our partners this year. What a great service you both provide. We are so happy to be able to show our appreciation.
If you are interested in participating in 2024 Movers For Moms, it is never too early to plan. Call us and see what you can do to help!
Truckload of Warmth
Our third Annual Truckload of Warmth was beyond record-breaking! We received so many donations we had to expand the number of charities which would benefit from warm winter apparel. We were so lucky to have been a part of keeping Northern Michigan warm in our frigid winter months. We will be kicking off 2017 in September with the help of KHQ and Eastfield Laundry and are excited to begin our community partnerships, please call the office if your business is interested in partnering!
Movers for Military
We are gearing up for our annual MOVERS FOR MILITARY® campaign where the goal is to provide essential items to veterans and their families. On any given night, about 131,000 veterans are homeless. We want to show support and appreciation for the sacrifices they have made for our country. We are looking for donations from businesses and/or locations to host drop-off boxes in the Traverse City office. Any contribution is very much appreciated. If you are interested in partnering with us this year, please call our office!
