We are proud to share a recent initiative that perfectly embodies our core value of "Faithful Service."   When Fall Line Church in Macon, GA organized a food drive to restock their community food pantry, Southern States Toyotalift was honored to step in and help by providing a forklift to manage the incredible volume of donations coming from partners like Convoy of Hope, Georgia Power, and Kroger.   This equipment was crucial in transforming the pantry from empty to overflowing in a single day, quickly moving: ·      20 pallets of food and goods (Convoy of Hope) ·      300 lbs of meat and baked goods (Kroger) ·      A pledged 2400 lbs of food to come (Georgia Power)   We believe in supporting the organizations that serve on the front lines. Thank you, Fall Line Church, and their partners for the opportunity to assist in lifting up our community!   #FaithfulService #CommunitySupport #FallLineChurch #LiftingUpOurCommunity #SouthernStatesToyotalift
