The fourth annual Farbman Group food drive will take place from 8 a.m. - 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 29. Food donations will benefit Gleaners Community Food Bank of Southeastern Michigan.
"We feel compelled to do our part to support Gleaners during a month when most people aren't thinking about giving back," said Andrew Farbman, President and CEO of Farbman Group. "We purposely host our food drive in January to remind the community that hunger is a problem that exists year-round, and giving back is not something that should only happen during the holiday season."
The Farbman Group is a leading full-service real estate company, based in Southfield. Participants can enter a drawing for a chance to win an iPad Mini by donating $5 or five cans of food. Suggested donations are high-protein canned items, individually packaged healthy snacks for kids, or toiletries.
Donations can be dropped off at the following locations: Essex Centre, 28400 Northwestern Highway, Southfield, Mich. 48034; Bingham Office Center, 30600-30800 Telegraph Road, Bingham Farms, Mich. 48025; Sheffield Office Park, 3250, 3290 and 3310 West Big Beaver Road, Troy, Mich. 48084; Fisher Building, 3011 West Grand Boulevard, Detroit, Mich. 48202; New Center One Building, 3031 W. Grand Blvd., Detroit, Mich., 48202. Trucks donated by Statewide Disaster Restoration will be stationed outside of each building to collect donations.
