Halls & Company, the Brooklyn Mark, Minnesota-based manufacture of ID Line, got into the holiday spirit this season by raising a total of $4,130 for local Minneapolis food shelves. While donations were given to three different food shelves, the majority of the donations went to the North-Suburban Emergency Assistance Response (NEAR) located in Crystal, Minn.
A non-profit volunteer organization, NEAR responds to the emergency needs of people in the community. Through a cooperative effort of 12 area churches, volunteers provide emergency food relief to residents of northern Robbinsdale, Crystal, and New Hope, Minn.
“We feel it is important to give back to our local community,” said Janet Adams, president and CEO at Halls & Company. “Through our donations to these local food shelves, we’re able to make a meaningful impact on the lives of the people in our community.”
“It is great to be able to see our efforts really help others,” said Zach Kinder, shipper for Halls & Company.
“The boxes are given alongside our client families’ regular food order to make sure that every family will have food for the upcoming holidays,” said Jan Monroe from the NEAR Food Shelf.
