Clutch Launches Reviews for Good to Support Capital Area Food Bank

Every verified review from Nov. 10 to Dec. 10 sends $10 to fight hunger in Greater Washington

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Clutch today launched Reviews for Good, a holiday giving campaign that turns verified client reviews into support for the Capital Area Food Bank.

From Nov. 10 to Dec. 10, Clutch will donate $10 to the food bank for every new verified review, equating to 20 meals per review.

Clutch is built on reviews. They’re how businesses find partners they can trust and how great providers win new work. This season, reviews also help feed neighbors experiencing food insecurity, which has reached a five-year high in the Greater Washington region. According to the Capital Area Food Bank, 38% of households in the region struggled to put enough nutritious food on their table last year.

“Hunger in the DC region isn’t a distant problem. It’s happening in the neighborhoods where our team lives and works,” said Mike Beares, Clutch founder and CEO. “We wanted this season’s reviews to do more than help the next company choose the right partner. With Capital Area Food Bank, each one now helps put meals on the table close to home.”

Through its network of hundreds of nonprofit partner organizations and distributions directly to the community, the Capital Area Food Bank distributed 66 million meals worth of food last fiscal year. This year, the food bank is aiming to distribute the food for 70 million meals.

“With food insecurity at a five-year high in the Greater Washington region, the need for community support has never been greater,” said Melanie Minzes, deputy chief development officer at the Capital Area Food Bank. “Partnerships like this one with Clutch help transform everyday actions into tangible support for our neighbors so they can access the nutritious food they need to thrive.”
