Buckingham Companies Partners with Hoosiers Helping Houston Campaign

September 18, 2017

Buckingham Companies and Radio One collected approximately 55,000 pounds of donated goods on two separate semi-trailers for a total of approximately 110,000 pounds (55 tons) of goods. The Salvation Army truck collected roughly 2,000 pounds, including donated clothes, duvets from The Alexander Hotel, and items Red Cross was unable to take.

“To have a company like Buckingham ask us, 'What can we do to help?' is music to our ears. During Buckingham’s service day they made over 200 breakfast burritos, filtered over 1000 items of clothing and organized our house top to bottom!”

Mike Elliott
Director of Involvement, Outreach Inc.

"At Gleaners, we love working with enthusiastic and excited volunteers like Buckingham! In just a few short hours, Buckingham employees processed enough food to provide over 4,800 meals to hungry Hoosiers."

"Buckingham Foundation didn’t just support our conference, they became some of our most enthusiastic participants! They helped us inspire attendees and build great connections in the Indy community and beyond."

“As experts in affordable housing, Buckingham Foundation clearly understands the challenges and complexity of working with our community’s most vulnerable: homeless families.”
