U.S. Foodservice donated three forklifts to the Atlanta Community Food Bank (ACFB) , which will increase the food bank's efficiency in lifting, transporting and distributing food by 20 percent. ACFB is a member of Feeding America, a national network of more than 200 food banks. ACFB distributes more than 2 million pounds of food and grocery items each month to its more than 800 partner agencies throughout 38 counties in metro Atlanta and northern Georgia.

In an effort to help end hunger, U.S. Foodservice partnered with Feeding America to help get food to those who need it most. Last year, U.S. Foodservice donated more than $4 million in food and monetary support to Feeding America.
