Stamp Out Hunger! Sat May 8

This Saturday, May 8th, USPS is holding a nationwide food drive for local food banks. All you have to do is put your nonperishable items in a bag and leave it at your mailbox! Your mail carrier will make sure the food gets to your local food bank or pantry! Go HERE for more information.

I challenge my family and friends to donate at least one grocery bag full of items this Saturday!

Food banks desperately need the following:

• Meats: Canned meat (Spam, ham, meat spread, beef stew, chicken, tuna)

• Breads & Cereals: Baking mix, muffin mix, dry cereal, oatmeal, grits, rice, pasta noodles, cornmeal, sugar, flour.

• Fruits and Vegetables: Canned fruit (citrus sections, oranges, pineapples, applesauce, apricots), canned juices (tomato, orange, pineapple, grape), canned vegetables, soups, dried fruits (raisins, apricots, prunes)

• Miscellaneous: Macaroni and Cheese, spaghetti sauces, boxed juice, peanut butter, canned nuts, jams and jellies.

Here's what we'll be donating this year:
