As Los Angeles faces another challenging year, NorthStar Moving calls on Angelenos to help feed thousands of local children this summer
Los Angeles, CA, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NorthStar Moving® Company, the leading eco-luxury mover in California, announced today the launch of their 13th Annual Let’s Send Hunger Packing Food Drive.
Los Angeles County continues to hold a heartbreaking distinction: more children struggle with food insecurity here than in any other county in the United States. To help combat this crisis, NorthStar Moving has once again partnered with Compass Real Estate to raise critical funds for the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, providing children with access to nutritious meals throughout the summer.
“We see the devastating impact of food insecurity across Los Angeles County, including among children,” said President and CEO of the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank Michael Flood. “The Food Bank and our partner agencies are now reaching one million people each month, and partners like NorthStar Moving help us continue this vital work.”
In California, more than 2 million children live in low-income households affected by hunger. When schools close for summer break, many children lose access to their primary source of daily nutrition. Yet, summer is also a period when donations to food banks often decline, placing additional strain on resources.
“Our LA community has faced fires, ongoing ICE raids, rising prices — and yet, Los Angeles always perseveres. We are LA Strong,” said NorthStar Moving Co-Founder Laura McHolm. “The resilience of this city is rooted in how we show up for one another. Some of our neighbors are now afraid to go to work and are falling farther behind. Too many of our neighbors are being forced to choose between paying rent or putting food on the table. For less than the cost of one dinner out, you can provide 100 meals to a child who’s hungry. The Let’s Send Hunger Packing Food Drive gives us all the power to be part of the solution, quickly, directly and with real impact. LA shows up for each other. Let’s show up now.”
The 13th Annual Let’s Send Hunger Packing Food Drive is entirely virtual and will run through August 1, 2025. To make a donation today, please click HERE.
Over the past 12 years, the Let’s Send Hunger Packing Food Drive has provided over 819,000 meals to children and families in need. This year, NorthStar Moving and Compass Real Estate have set a goal to cross the 1,000,000 meal mark.
Every dollar raised will directly support the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank’s mission to fight hunger and feed hope.
