Carmel Financial Corporation wraps up its 18th Annual Holiday Food Drive which benefits The Good Samaritan Network. A. Arnold World Class Relocation’s Indianapolis office donated warehouse space to store the collected food goods until delivery to the Carmel Fire Department for distribution. This year the food drive collected 95,650 cans, which will help feed over 13,000 families in the Hamilton County area.
“We’ve worked with Carmel Financial since 2004, picking up donations and storing them in our warehouse. The people at Carmel Financial are great to work with. Every detail is well planned and executed, and it benefits such a great cause. We’re just happy we can help.” said Mark Russell, General Manager of the Indianapolis branch of A. Arnold.
“Our annual food drive is driven entirely by our employees - they are committed to helping needy families in our surrounding communities. We’ve gone from collecting 2,280 canned items in 1992 to over 95,000 items this year. Without the help of companies like A. Arnold, who are willing to donate their services, we couldn’t continue to do this.” said Kathleen Thomas, Food Drive Coordinator at Carmel Financial.
