TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Campaigns

Movers for Meals

Our franchise has coordinated the Movers For Meals food drive. We have worked with local businesses to host as drop off locations for the community to donate non-perishable food for the Manna For Life Food Pantry in Green Bay. In years past we have collected thousands of items from our communities and delivered these items to the Manna For Life Food Pantry. This program is our effort to help combat hungerness in our local communities.

Movers for Moms

On an annual basis, we coordinate our Mover for Moms® program which provides essential hygiene items for Mothers living in shelters on Mother’s Day. We work with local businesses to host their building as a drop off location for the community to donate items. All of the donations from these programs go to shelters in Green Bay, Appleton, and Oshkosh. We deliver the donations to the shelters the week of Mother's Day.  In years past we have received thousands of donations for moms and their families. The beneficiaries of this program include the Christine Ann Center, Harbor House, and the House of Hope

Movers for Mutts

Starting in September 2017 we are coordinating a community drive named Movers for Mutts! We have partnered with local businesses to support animals in our community. With the assistance of local businesses we are collecting pet toys, food, treats, and other items for the Unfortgettable Underdogs Dog Rescue! All of the donations will be given to local organizations to support animals that are looking for their forever home. If you are interested in donating please call us! The campaign runs from September 18 to October 31.
