Managed Solution employees volunteered at The Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank and donated over 300+ food items and $1,500 to help families in need

Every December, Managed Solution and their employees select a charitable cause to help families less fortunate. With our headquarters being in San Diego, a county of 3.1 million residents with 475,773 living in poverty, we selected the San Diego Food Bank. 15.2% of the population in San Diego, 138,334 being children face “food insecurity,” which means that little or no food is available at home. Many times, they will not know where their next meal is coming from.

Managed Solution is committed to investing not only in our clients and staff, but also in our community. So, to help address food insecurity in San Diego, Managed Solution is proud to announce that our team has brought in over 300+ food items, volunteered at The Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank and donated $1,500 in cash to the Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank!

The Fighting Hunger Games

Managed Solution encouraged staff to participate individually, but also created a point-system that helped earn additional company donations through participating in staff challenges, volunteer days, and more! The Fighting Hunger Games was Managed Solution’s Food and Fund Drive benefitting the San Diego Food Bank, running November 28th through December 30th. Follow us on social to see how our staffers participated.

Our staff is also encouraged to share their individual charitable contributions and volunteer work with hashtag #ManagedSolutionCares

The Managed Solution team had a great time laughing for a cause last night at The Live Well Project's Comedy Show Fundraiser - Glam It Up For Our Girls

The Managed Solution team joined Jennell Mott and the Live Well Project for a hosted bar, comedy digs by Monique Marvez (as seen on Snoop Dogs Bad Girls of Comedy), and awesome raffle/auction prizes last night.
All proceeds benefit The Live Well Project, helping hundreds of at-risk, homeless and abused girls in the San Diego community. Help us get them off the streets, off drugs and into college.
