Mail carriers will pick up food donations on May 11 and deliver them to local food pantries.

(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) – Donating to local needy families doesn’t have to be any more difficult than walking to your mailbox this weekend.

The annual National Association of Letter Carriers “Stamp Out Hunger” Food Drive is Saturday, May 11. Mailmen and mailwomen across the country will be collecting food donations as they run their routes.

For residents, it’s easy. Just collect and bag some non-perishable food items like canned goods, pasta, cereal or rice. Then, place the bag by your mailbox. The letter carrier will take it to be delivered to a local food pantry.

Learn more about the drive at www.helpstampouthunger.com.
