At Michael Best, we are committed to giving back to our communities. For this year’s #BestEfforts campaign, our Austin office partnered with Hope Totes to support local children in need. Hope Totes provides essential items to children being removed from unsafe environments, ensuring they have clean, age-appropriate clothing, toiletries, and comfort items. These thoughtfully packed totes offer a sense of dignity and care during challenging times. Our team had an incredible afternoon sorting and preparing hundreds of clothing items and toiletry bags. We packed 54 totes and 100 toiletry bags, and thanks to generous donations, we were able to prepare an additional 50 totes. In total, 104 totes were delivered to the foster care program and an emergency family homeless shelter this week. We are happy to have contributed to this meaningful initiative and to support children when they need it the most.

At Michael Best, we're committed to giving back to our communities. Our Utah offices proudly participated in the 2024 #BestEfforts campaign by supporting the Utah Food Bank. For 120 years, Utah Food Bank has been dedicated to serving those in need throughout our state. Last year alone, they distributed 50.1 million meals through a network of 245 partner agencies across all 29 counties. They also offer direct service programs to help the most vulnerable populations, including children and seniors. Our volunteers assisted with sorting food donations, filling boxes for community distribution, and putting together food kits for home deliveries. By partnering with Utah Food Bank, we aim to support their mission of Fighting Hunger Statewide and make a positive impact on the lives of Utahns facing food insecurity. We are thrilled to contribute to such a meaningful cause and to support the well-being and growth of our community.
