The Los Angeles Regional Food Bank has benefited tremendously from its partnership with FedEx. By working together, the two organizations are able to achieve greater results and create meaningful change in the community. With a longstanding commitment to supporting the Food Bank’s mission, FedEx has contributed over $430,000 in financial support, helping to provide nutritious food for children, individuals and seniors in need.
Beyond financial contributions, FedEx demonstrates its dedication to addressing hunger and food insecurity through active volunteerism. FedEx’s volunteer efforts play
a crucial role in the Food Bank’s operations by contributing to roughly 126,000 total volunteer hours annually. By volunteering their time, FedEx team members help the Food Bank stay highly efficient and serve more individuals in need, strengthening the impact of their collective work.
FedEx fosters a culture of community involvement and social responsibility among its workforce by actively engaging its team members in volunteer efforts at the Food Bank. These volunteer activities allow FedEx employees to build meaningful connections with the local community, making a tangible difference in the lives of families in need.
At a recent event celebrating FedEx’s 50th birthday and the Food Bank’s 50th anniversary, over 100 FedEx team members volunteered at the Food Bank’s City of Industry warehouse, packing 4,816 food boxes for distribution to individuals and families throughout Los Angeles County. This collaborative effort was part of the FedEx Cares “50 by 50” campaign, aiming to positively impact the lives of 50 million people by April 2023. The collaboration between FedEx and the Food Bank demonstrates the power of teamwork in addressing community needs and creating positive change.
