Hunger Heroes
“We are grateful for the opportunity to support Caliber, not only as a charitable partner but also as a customer we proudly serve in the logistics and fleet space,” said Jerry Daddesi, CRO at Konexial. “We are proud to support such a high-impact initiative and look forward to helping increase participation, drive donations, and make an even bigger difference this year.”
Konexial team members will work side-by-side with Caliber’s regional Hunger Heroes to assist with logistics, promote awareness, and help collect food donations on the ground.
“Giving back is part of our DNA,” added Kristin Rakoczy, vice president of Marketing at Konexial. “As a trusted supply chain and logistics partner, we are uniquely positioned to mobilize our people and network to elevate Caliber’s mission and
bring critical resources to the communities that need them most.”
