Northern Virginia Plumbing Service Continues Tradition Of Helping The Hungry

Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) November 09, 2012

My Plumber Heating and Cooling, a premiere plumbing service in Northern Virginia, announces the 11th year of its food drive initiative, Warm Hands and Full Hearts.

Warm Hands and Full Hearts is dedicated to redistributing food to those facing food insecurity in the communities surrounding Manassas, Fairfax, Arlington, Springfield, and Stafford. The organization was founded by the Presgrave family, and over the last ten years My Plumber has collected more than 80,000 lbs. of food.

The Warm Hands and Full Hearts initiative is a valuable demonstration of how a private business can do good in the community. Beginning November 1, and continuing throughout the winter season, My Plumber Heating and Cooling offers a $55 Winter Tune-Up in exchange, for 5 non-perishable food items. Household or personal supplies and baby items are also welcomed.

Collecting and shuffling all that food around is a massive task and an administrative nightmare, but the employees at My Plumber are happy to do it. Being able to help the hungry on such a large scale, is worth a few sore backs. The company works closely with religious organizations, food banks, and other services in their 25-county service area to help ensure that the food gets to those who need it the most.

My Plumbers tight-knit staff is justifiably proud of the Warm Hands and Full Hearts initiative, and donates many hours of their time to the effort every year.

Its easy for customers to participate as well. When a My Plumber employee makes a service call, they can simply take the donation along with them. Donations like shampoo and tampons are welcomed as well as non-perishable food items, however, glass bottles and refrigerator stock cannot be accepted. With the $55 Winter Tune-Up for all heating systems, everyone wins-- especially the needy.
