Lewisville, Texas, May 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Caliber family of brands, including Caliber Collision, alongside Caliber Auto Care and Caliber Auto Glass, is supporting the Atlanta Community Food Bank as part of its 11th annual Restoring You™ Food Drive which kicked off May 2. This food drive helps demonstrate Caliber's commitment to its purpose of Restoring the Rhythm of Your Life®.
According to Atlanta Community Food Bank, food insecurity is a growing problem in Atlanta, as 16 percent of children in the service area of ACFB are considered food insecure. That's one out of seven children in Atlanta experiencing food insecurity. Like many people across the country, many residents are feeling the effects of the rising cost of living, including housing, food and gas prices, which directly contribute to the lack of food resources. Caliber specifically targeted a springtime food drive to provide meals for families and children in need, particularly children who will miss out on subsidized meals as schools close over summer break.
"From teammates to partners to customers, I am extremely proud of the positive impact our annual food drive has made over the last decade. We operate as a family at Caliber and are driven by our purpose of Restoring the Rhythm of Your Life® – lending a helping hand to children and families facing food insecurity is one of the ways we live our purpose," said Caliber CEO and President Mark Sanders. "During our 11th Annual Restoring You™ Food Drive, we will continue supporting local food banks that provide urgent food assistance in all of the communities that Caliber serves."
With the goal of donating more than four million meals during its 2022 food drive, the Caliber team needs your support. Non-perishable food and monetary donations can be made at any Caliber location through June 17. As always, 100% of donations go to Atlanta Community Food Bank, where just one dollar provides six meals to children in need. Additionally, to make funds go further, the Caliber Foundation, Caliber's 501(c)(3) non-profit, is matching all monetary donations it receives for the food drive by $.25 for every dollar raised, and donations to the Caliber Foundation are tax-deductible.
