Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive
May 10 – May 11 all-day

 

Stamp Out Hunger

 On May 10th. your letter carrier is teaming up with food pantries around the country. As he or she makes the rounds delivering mail, they will also be picking up non-perishable food items left by your mail box.
The food is delivered to your food pantry .. in our case the Center for Family Services Meadville pantry and distributed to other organizations in our community.

The CFS Food Pantries provide boxes full of food items that help supplement the household food budget of over 3000 local people each month. The Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive helps keep these boxes full throughout the Summer months, when donations are at the lowest.

Together we can make this a banner year for donations! Spread the word and ask your friends and neighbors to join in on May 10th to help “Stamp Out Hunger”!
