February 6, 2019C2 Forms a Hunger Heroes Team to Benefit Local Food Pantry
C2 Design Group has formed a Hunger Heroes team to benefit The Food Pantries for the Capital District and Capital Region CANstruction.
C2 is collecting non-perishable food items and raising funds to help feed community members that are food insecure. They are collecting food at their office at 340 Broadway in Schenectady, New York, until March 13, 2019. “We care about communities,” said Michael Roman, owner and principal of C2. “We’re committed to doing our part to help provide food and raise awareness in the Capital District.”
There are currently 96,000 people in our region who don’t know where their next meal is coming from. Over 26,000 of them are babies and children.
Last week, Roman reached out to long-time client and friend, Jon Phillips, owner of Phillips Hardware to talk about community initiatives. Roman and Phillips share the commitment to give back to the communities where they live, work and play. Phillips offered to place boxes in each of his five store locations (Altamont, Delmar, Schenectady, Voorheesville and Waterford) to collect food to help support the C2 team.
“Great things can happen when we all chip in and support our surrounding communities,” said Roman. “I’m thankful to Jon and the Phillips family for collaborating with us for such an important cause.”
