CapTech Food Fight Raises More Than $55,000 for Feed More
RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In its 6th annual CapTech Food Fight, CapTech Richmond raised $55,469 for Feed More, more than doubling their fundraising efforts over the 2017 campaign. This friendly fundraising competition among CapTech consultants will help provide over 221,800 meals for neighbors who struggle with hunger throughout Central Virginia. The check presentation will take place at Feed More's campus on December 18.
The CapTech Food Fight for Feed More is part of the CapTech's National Food Fight, an annual fundraising campaign where each of CapTech's eight offices compete to raise the most funds per capita for their local food bank. This year, the campaign raised over $115,000 for local food banks across the U.S. Launched in 2013, the program has donated a combination of food and funds, providing more than 420,000 meals locally over the past six years.
"We continue to be impressed with and inspired by CapTech's commitment to our mission," said Doug Pick, Chief Executive Officer and President at Feed More. "We love the spirit of CapTech's annual Food Fight and are incredibly grateful to have them by our side as we help our Central Virginia neighbors in their times of need."
"Each year I continue to be blown away by the generosity that CapTech demonstrates during this campaign," said CapTecher Jonathan Henry. "The office seems to get more and more creative with our fundraising ideas, using additional ways to outpace the previous year's donation totals. The enthusiasm and excitement for this campaign is infectious and grows each year. It has been really energizing to see the impact our donations and volunteer efforts make on Feed More and within the greater Richmond community."
