Sumitomo Machinery Corporation of America (SMA) Donates $38,000 to the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore

Founded in 1981, the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore ensures that our communities’ members receive healthy meals. The Foodbank serves over 19 million meals to 390,000 individuals on an annual basis throughout the Coastal Virginia area. They serve the most vulnerable members of our community—the elderly, the disabled, and underprivileged families.

This initiative is at the core of SMA’s values—to work as a team. Our employees understand individuals and families across our communities need assistance, and we could not be more proud to be an annual donor and Epicurean partner of the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia and the Eastern Shore.

At our annual Thanksgiving Luncheon, SMA presented the Foodbank with a check of $38,000, through efforts made by employees and executives throughout 2015. This contribution enables hundreds of community members to be fed throughout the fall and winter months.
