Our 13th annual CBIZ Food Drive has come to a close with an incredible result and a notable milestone. Team members in nearly 80 locations took part in “Feed The Need”, a combined in-office and virtual donation event. In total, we donated groceries and monetary donations that equal
1,168,439 pounds of food for local food pantries. With this year’s impressive total, CBIZ has now collected more than 10 million pounds of food since the 2009 inception of the annual tradition. Additionally,
2021 marks the seventh consecutive year we’ve exceeded one million pounds in donations.
The food items and financial donations were collected both in person and virtually, to ensure everyone felt safe with taking part in an opportunity to give back to their communities this holiday season.We again held challenges between offices, broken down by small, medium and large categories. Prizes ranged from $500 to $5,000 corporate donations to the location’s food bank, as well as incentives like a half day off of work or breakfast or lunch for the entire office. Join us in congratulating the winners:
- First place, large: CBIZ Phoenix at 1,578.16 pounds per person
- Second place, large: CBIZ Memphis at 686.58 pounds per person
- First place, medium: CBIZ BTZ in San Diego at 1,250 pounds per person
- Second place, medium: CBIZ Oxnard at 457.42 pounds per person
- First place, small: CBIZ Greenville, SC at 1,382.5 pounds per person
- Second place, small: CBIZ FCG in Tampa at 1,063.13 pounds per person
Thank you to everyone who planned and supported our combined in-person and virtual food drive! We commend our team members for their desire to give back, especially in such challenging times.
In the coming days, we will share some additional experiences from “Feed The Need” when we announce the winners of the “Best Virtual Promotion.” Team members were asked to submit their best photo, video, TikTok or other visual that promotes the food drive. Additionally, we’ll reveal the winners of the “Best Display” contest, where Food Drive committees teamed up to put on the best visual display of the donations they collected.
