Stamp Out Hunger

Join in the fight to end hunger on Saturday, May 9, 2009, by leaving non-perishable food donations in a bag next to your mailbox for your letter carrier. Stamp Out Hunger is the nation’s largest single-day food drive. Last year, over 73 million pounds of food were donated to food banks.

This event was created by the National Association of Letter Carriers, in conjunction with Feeding America, and is sponsored by Campbell Soup Company, the United States Postal Service, United Way of America, G2 Interactive and Valpak.

What you can do to help

1) Place bags with nonperishable* food items next to your mailbox.

2) Your letter carrier will pick them up and deliver them to local food banks.

* Donate things like canned meat and fish, canned soup, juice, pasta, cereal and rice. Please do not include items that have expired or are in glass containers.
