From June 13-23, Cox Automotive is teaming up with Drive Away Hunger to raise funds and food donations for local food banks.
The company’s business units from across Canada will retrieve food items that food banks have deemed most-needed, which include things such as canned meat, fish, canned or dry pasta and other canned goods.
“We are committed to our local communities and our employees are driving this great initiative,” said Maria Soklis, President of Cox Automotive Canada, in a written release.
“We know that many Canadian households are struggling to make ends meet and properly feed their families. We believe the Drive Away Hunger program will raise much-needed food during the summer months when food bank donations are typically low,” Soklis added.
Recently, Cox Automotive also announced it was supporting the Fort McMurray community through clothing drives, matching employee donations and providing a $30,000 donation to the Canadian Red Cross.
