(Dec. 10, 2015) In 2014, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported that 17.4 million of U.S. households were food insecure at some point during that year.
In an effort to fight hunger in the communities it serves this holiday season,TCC, the largest Verizon Premium Wireless Retailer in the U.S., announced that 550 of its stores will be collecting canned and boxed foods from customers and community members to provide to local partnering food banks.
Through its second annual “Stop the Hunger” campaign, participating TCC stores across the U.S. are encouraging local families to bring in canned and boxed food items through Monday, Dec. 14. Each store has a goal of donating 50 pounds of food, which will be delivered to local hunger relief organizations nationwide on Tuesday, Dec. 15.
The participating stores in Berlin, Ocean City and West Ocean City are located at:
– 10818 Ocean Gateway, Unit E, Berlin, 21811
– 12701 Coastal Highway, Store #3, Ocean City, 21842
