Opt2give Day 2020

The Detroit office spent the morning partnering with Forgotten Harvest, they fight hunger and food insecurity by delivering 138,000 pounds of surplus food to local charities 6 days a week. Our time was spent packaging up boxes of the surplus food (potatoes, pasta, soup etc.) for those in need in our local community.

Our afternoon was spent with Arts and Scraps, who provides hands-on learning and creative experiences to children throughout Southeast Michigan with an emphasis on STEM. With the pandemic canceling a lot of in person programs, Arts and Scraps has been putting together activity boxes that are distributed throughout the community. We spent our time getting some of the materials ready to be packaged up and sent out to local kids!
