QGive Campaign Runs December 1st to December 31st, 2019

CUBEX is once again partnering with St Mary's Food Bank to help replenish the shelves for 2020 and help to alleviate hunger in Arizona. This year, we are again adding a Pet Food Drive to support Arizona Animal Welfare League and ASPCA (AAWL) to make this an all-in-one "People and Pets" Food Drive. 

Through previous years food drives, Cubex has donated exactly 1000 lbs of food to St Mary's (that's approx 833 meals to Arizona families in need). Fun fact: In 2015, Cubex was able to donate a whopping 660 lbs! Not so fun fact: In 2019, we only collected 106 lbs. We have grown so much, I am confident we have another chance to top 2015! Let's see what we can do for our people and pets in our state. 

There will be 2 opportunities to donate:

Cubex Sponsored Event: Feed My Starving Children 

 Wednesday, June 5th, 2019

1pm to 3pm and 3:30pm-5:30pm

Help turn hunger into hope with your own two hands by packing nutritious meals for hungry children around the world. 

Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) is a Christian nonprofit dedicated to providing nutritious meals to children worldwide. FMSC meals are hand-packed by volunteers and sent to an incredible network of partner organizations who distribute them to those in need. Nearly 1.2 million volunteers packed more than 333 million FMSC meals in 2017. More than 90 percent of total donations go directly to feed kids.

In one 2 hour session last year, Cubex was able to pack enough meals to feed 1 child for a year! This is an energetic, fast paced, team-oriented, family friendly event. There is opportunity for everyone to participate with the end goal of providing nutrition to children in need around the world. 

Have you ever heard of "CanStruction"? CanStruction.org is known for their commitment to art, innovation, and hunger relief. Their art exhibitions and events have helped raise over 50 million pounds of food to local food banks since 1992. 

Let's wrap up the People and Pet Food Drive with a fun Cubex CanStruction event of our own! Find inspiration and CanTribute today ;)

Following the current "People and Pets" Food Drive, it only seemed appropriate to create an event that follows the food donations to the next step in its journey. In this case, our people portion of donations will be taken to St. Mary’s Food Bank  here in our own Phoenix backyard.

It doesn’t take much to push a family into hunger. A job loss. An accident. An illness. The people St. Mary's serves come from all walks of life. Hunger has many faces.  St. Mary’s Food Bank serves to alleviate hunger through the gathering and distribution of food while encouraging self-sufficiency, collaboration, advocacy and education. St. Mary’s Food Bank is truly a community-based organization.

"Health and wellness is a top priority as we aim to address root causes of poverty and food insecurity. Thanks to the outpouring of community support, our urban farm includes nearly one acre of farmland with a variety of fruits and vegetables, an aquaponics system that produces tilapia and a robust composting program that turns kitchen scraps into valuable soil to grow more food.
