Help Put The Breaks On Hunger!

Description

Econo Auto Rentals, Feeding America Tampa Bay to help “Put The Brakes On Hunger!”
 Food drive set for November 4th-22th
 
On Monday, Nov 4, Econo Auto Rentals will help Put The Brakes On Hunger! across America with your help in order to provide assistance to the rapidly increasing number of Americans who are struggling with hunger.  
 
The Put the Brakes On Hunger! drive organizers have set a goal this year to collect over 200 pounds of food between the dates of Nov 4 thru  Nov 22.
 
It’s sometimes difficult to believe that hunger exists in Tampa Bay. Most people think of hunger in terms of famine and mass starvation — terrible tragedies, but not something that affects people every day in our own community.
 
Hunger in our community is often more subtle. It’s a child who stuffs his pockets during lunch at school so he has food to eat at home in the evening. It’s a parent who is ironically—overweight, because sugar and carbohydrate-laden foods are often the least expensive at the local store. It’s a senior citizen who goes without food in order to buy medicine, further  jeopardizing her already fragile health.
 
The reality is that there are hungry people in Tampa Bay and fully half of those are children and the elderly.
 
A contribution means much needed help, and hope, will be available to those who need it. Your generosity makes a difference. To help Put The Brakes On Hunger! in Tampa Bay this year, simply stop by Econo Auto Rentals, located at 9017 Adamo Drive, Suite 115(SW corner of 301 and 60) with non-perishable foods - such as canned vegetables, boxed dinners (such as macaroni & cheese, Hamburger Helper, cereal), rice, pinto beans, paper goods (such as paper towels, toilet paper) and personal hygiene items (such as shampoo, body soap, toothbrushes) . Food items should be in non-breakable containers, such as boxes and cans.  (No Glass Please!)
