The U.S. Department of Agriculture defines food insecurity as a lack of consistent and equitable access to healthy, safe and affordable foods that promote optimal health and well-being. Hunger is an often hidden yet urgent crisis that affects one in five households – roughly 13.5% of the U.S., significantly higher than previous years. According to recent data, 14 million children are food insecure, and more than 50 million people turned to food assistance programs in 2023.
“As one of the largest national brands in the industry, we know that restoring the rhythm of our customers’ lives doesn’t stop at ensuring their vehicles run smoothly,” Dillender said. “We are once again excited to extend our support and look forward to seeing our customers, teammates and business partners join together to make a difference.”
Caliber’s Restoring You Food Drive reflects its core values of supporting those in need by addressing this pressing issue. Over the last 13 years, the initiative has contributed over 36 million meals to food banks across the U.S.
