PHOENIX, (September 13, 2024) – Employees from the Phoenix office of Lincoln Property Company (Lincoln) participated yesterday in the Meal Pack for 9/11 Day, joining volunteers in 21 cities across the U.S. to pack nine million meals for those at risk of hunger in America.
The annual event included more than 25,000 volunteers nationwide, from corporate employees to military veterans and first responders.
In Phoenix, 32 Lincoln employees joined volunteers from across the Valley to pack 400,000 meals that will be distributed to local individuals and families facing food insecurity. The company's $ 11,000 donation in support of its team's participation covered the cost of the food ingredients packed by Lincoln employees.
“Community, connection and collaboration are central elements of Lincoln’s corporate culture,” said Lincoln Property Company Senior Executive Vice President David Krumwiede. “We apply these values in our business and we seek out ways to apply them as volunteers. It is part of our promise to work continuously to improve the future of the Valley, and we always appreciate the opportunity.”
Co-founders David Paine and Jay Winuk created 9/11 Day in 2002 after Jay’s brother Glenn Winuk perished in the line of duty when the World Trade Center South Tower collapsed. The organization’s mission is to inspire and rekindle the spirit of unity and compassion that arose in the aftermath of 9/11 and to perform good deeds and other acts of service in tribute to the 9/11 victims, survivors, first responders, and military members.
