What believers are saying

  • June 18, 2026 Parade With A Purpose raised more than 200,000 meals in New Orleans.
  • October 22, 2026 fresh-food transports delivered nearly 23,000 pounds across California, Ohio, New Jersey.
  • New partnerships with Two Chicks Moving and Direct Relocation Services widen regional distribution pipelines.

What critics are saying

  • Donor-driven operations depend on partners like Valet Living, Cartus, and All My Sons.
  • Most volume comes from one-off moving events; any housing slowdown quickly cuts donations.
  • If sponsor renewals weaken, the nonprofit loses reach, meals, and relevance fast.

What makes Move For Hunger unique

  • Move For Hunger turned moving-day leftovers into 82 million meals by June 2026.
  • Its network spans 1,200-plus movers, apartments, and relocation firms across U.S. and Canada.
  • The fresh-food expansion with Farmlink and America’s Grow-a-Row broadens beyond pantry donations.

Two Chicks Moving, Cape Coral movers, partners with Move For Hunger to fight food insecurity in Cape Coral.

Two Chicks Moving, Cape Coral movers, partners with Move For Hunger to fight food insecurity in Cape Coral. * 4 hrs ago Cape Coral movers deliver donated food to Harry Chapin Food Bank, supporting local pantries after helping hundreds of families move. Every move creates an opportunity most people don't think about. Instead of unopened food going to waste, Mycarrollcountynews can turn it into meals for a Cape Coral family that needs it." CAPE CORAL, FL, UNITED STATES, September 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ - Two Chicks Moving, a leading name among Cape Coral movers and local movers near me searches across Southwest Florida, has announced a new partnership with Move For Hunger, a national nonprofit organization that mobilizes moving companies to fight hunger in the communities they serve. As part of the partnership, Two Chicks Moving, one of the top-rated residential movers and commercial movers serving Cape Coral, will collect unopened, non-perishable food donations from customers during their local moves and long distance moves and deliver them to Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida, with distribution reaching local Cape Coral partner agencies including Cape Coral Caring Center, Adventist Community Services Food Pantry, Mycarrollcountynews Care Food Pantry at Faith Presbyterian Church, and Cape Vineyard Community Outreach, to directly benefit Cape Coral families in need. Since expanding its service area to become one of the go-to Cape Coral movers, Two Chicks Moving has helped hundreds of Cape Coral families and businesses with local movers and long distance movers services, and its five-star reviews have grown steadily alongside that expansion. The company says the timing of this new partnership reflects a broader commitment: as Two Chicks Moving grows across Cape Coral movers searches, movers near me searches, and moving company near me searches throughout Southwest Florida, it wants that growth to give back directly to the community supporting it. "Every move creates an opportunity most people don't think about," said Rosie with Two Chicks Moving. "Customers are already sorting through pantries and cabinets when they move - instead of that unopened food going to waste, we can turn it into meals for a Cape Coral family that needs it. Partnering with Move For Hunger lets us do that as a natural part of what we already do every day." Through the partnership, Two Chicks Moving customers in Cape Coral will be offered a simple way to donate unopened, non-perishable food items during their move - canned goods, pasta, rice, peanut butter, and similar shelf-stable items - at no extra cost and with no special preparation required. Two Chicks Moving crews will collect the donations and deliver them to Harry Chapin Food Bank's Fort Myers distribution center, the largest hunger-relief organization in Southwest Florida and the region's only Feeding America partner food bank, serving Charlotte, Collier, Glades, Hendry, and Lee counties. From there, donations will reach Cape Coral partner agencies, ensuring the food collected from Cape Coral moves goes directly back to Cape Coral neighbors. Local Cape Coral Distribution Partners Cape Coral Caring Center - 4645 SE 15th Ave, Cape Coral, FL 33904 Adventist Community Services Food Pantry (a Harry Chapin Food Bank partner agency) - 1509 SE 47th Terrace, Cape Coral, FL 33904 Mycarrollcountynews Care Food Pantry, Faith Presbyterian Church - 4533 SE 6th Ct, Cape Coral, FL 33904 Cape Vineyard Community Outreach - 923 SE 47th Terrace, Cape Coral, FL 33904 Move For Hunger has worked with more than 1,200 moving companies, apartment communities, and relocation professionals across the United States and Canada since 2009, delivering more than 60 million pounds of food to local food banks - the equivalent of more than 50 million meals. The organization's model turns an already-happening event, a household move, into an opportunity to reduce food waste and fight hunger, without adding cost or extra effort for the customer. "More than 40 million Americans face hunger every day, and a lot of the solution starts with something as simple as not throwing away food that's still good," the Two Chicks Moving spokesperson added. "As Cape Coral movers ourselves, and local movers people search for throughout Southwest Florida, we see inside a lot of pantries. This is a way to make sure that food helps a neighbor instead of ending up in the trash." Two Chicks Moving says the Move For Hunger partnership will be a standard part of every move going forward, not a limited-time promotion, and plans to track and share its cumulative food-donation impact as it continues serving Cape Coral movers, Fort Myers movers, and Naples movers customers. The company is also encouraging other local Cape Coral movers and relocation-adjacent businesses to consider joining the Move For Hunger network. Customers moving in Cape Coral, Fort Myers, or Naples can learn more about scheduling a move and participating in the food donation program by visiting the company's Cape Coral service page at twochicksmoving.com/areas-served/cape-coral.
