Saturday, May 12, marks the 26th anniversary of the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive. Each year on the second Saturday of May, mail carriers across the country collect non-perishable food donations from postal customers. Participating in this year’s Mail Carrier Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is simple.

Customers can just leave non-perishable food donations in or by their mail box on Saturday, May 12, and your mail carrier will do the rest. Donations can also be dropped off anytime at the Forks, Beaver and La Push post offices. All local donations will go to the Forks Food Bank. Last year locally we collected 648 pounds. In previous years we have collected as much as 1,180 pounds. We appreciate our communities support in making this year’s food drive a success!
