Advanced Office's 9th Annual Holiday Food Drive

November 14, 2018 | Advanced Office

For our 9th Annual Holiday Food Drive, Advanced Office is partnering again with its employees and customers to raise awareness and collect food for those in need across Southern California. We are working with local food banks to make certain that no one goes hungry by helping ensure that all the donated food gets to those who need it quickly and efficiently.

Why have we chosen to continue this type of involvement in our community?

  • 1 in 6 children in Orange County are at risk of hunger
  • Over 25% of children in the Inland Empire are food insecure
  • More than 460,000 people in San Diego County are impacted by hunger, including more than 162,000 children
  • Over 1.4 million people in Los Angeles County face hunger on a regular basis

Advanced Office is dedicating this holiday season to helping support these organizations’ mission to ensure that no one goes hungry-- ever. Last year, thanks to the collective effort of our customers, employees, and vendors, we were able to collect over 2,000 pounds of food and other needed items. This year, we hope to be able to make a difference once again.
