TEC Industrial is excited to announce the successful completion of our first annual Holiday Food Drive! This project was launched in partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee and Harvest Hope in Greenville, South Carolina, with the goal of making a positive impact on families facing food insecurity in our local communities.
From November 3rd through December 1st, collection barrels were placed at multiple job sites, creating a friendly competition to see which location could collect the most food for this important cause. Employees across all locations came together to donate essential items such as canned goods, pasta, peanut butter, baby food, and more.
Thanks to these efforts, we collectively gathered 2,881 lbs. of food for Second Harvest and Harvest Hope, along with numerous cash donations. This amount equates to over 1,900 meals! This is a tremendous achievement that we hope to surpass in next year’s drive!
The winning location will be announced soon, and we would like to thank everyone who participated and helped make our first annual food drive a success!
