Thackray Crane Supports Camp Out for Hunger 2026 with Crane Services and Community Spirit
At Thackray Crane, supporting our community means more than providing equipment and services. It means showing up for the people and organizations making a difference across the Greater Philadelphia region.
This November, we’re proud to once again support Preston & Steve’s Camp Out for Hunger, an annual food drive hosted by 93.3 WMMR benefiting Philabundance and its mission to fight hunger throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey.
Helping Set the Stage for Camp Out for Hunger
Behind every successful community event is a team of people working to make it happen. For this year’s Camp Out for Hunger, Thackray Crane provided equipment and lifting services to assist with preparations at the event site in South Philadelphia.
Our team utilized our 110-ton Tadano AC 4.110-1 crane to safely unload and position three shipping containers as part of the event setup.
Following the container placement, Thackray returned with a boom truck to raise and display a large American flag, which will fly throughout the weeklong event.
From handling heavy containers to proudly displaying the American flag, we’re glad our equipment and crew could play a part in bringing this important Philadelphia tradition together.
A Philadelphia Tradition That Makes a Difference
Taking place this November 16th through the 20th, at the Xfinity Mobile Arena parking lot, Preston & Steve’s Camp Out for Hunger brings together businesses, volunteers, and residents from across the Delaware Valley to collect food and financial donations for Philabundance.
Now in its 29th year, the event has grown into the nation’s largest single-site food drive, helping provide critical resources to individuals and families experiencing food insecurity.
As a family-owned company with roots in the Philadelphia region dating back to 1947, Thackray Crane understands the importance of supporting the communities where we live and work. We’re grateful for opportunities to contribute our equipment, expertise, and resources to causes that make a meaningful impact.
Proud to Lift Up Our Community
While our everyday projects showcase our expertise in crane rentals and operators, transportation, warehousing, and logistics, some of the most rewarding projects are those that allow us to give back to our community.
We’re proud to support Preston & Steve, 93.3 WMMR, Philabundance, and everyone involved in making Camp Out for Hunger 2026 possible.
Together, we can help lift up our neighbors and make a difference for families in need.
