Fill-A-Cart

Foundational and Necessary:

In Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, the physiological need for shelter and food is the fundamental groundwork for all human endeavors, including job security, love, self-esteem, and self-actualization.

Here at Dealer Talk, we couldn’t agree more. It is our unending goal to eradicate hunger wherever we see it. We believe that personal accountability and responsibility for one’s contribution to society are hindered and obstructed by the ramifications of hunger upon the body.

Statistically Pertinent:

1. School-aged children who face severe hunger are 53.1% more likely to have severe depression. 
2. Children living in homes of food insecurity are more likely to suffer from attention disorders. 
3. 36% of college students are food insecure.

Loss of Greatness:

When one does not have the energy to wake up in the morning, how can one achieve their full potential? When one is focused primarily on basic human needs, how can they contribute to the furtherment of society? As fellow citizens of this world, it is our obligation to feed any and all in need.

Taking Action:

In pursuit of this endeavor, we are eager to announce our first annual “Fill a Cart” campaign for this Thanksgiving season. We will be promoting the opportunity for those in need within the Vegas community to come and fill their carts with food and other essentials.

The Dealer Talk team will donate to this endeavor and are eager to have you match.

A special thanks to Covideo and RunMyLease for their continued support in this campaign.
