“Stamp Out Hunger” Food Drive is Saturday May 9th
By leaving non-perishable food items at mailboxes on Saturday May 9, residents can help fill our local food pantry. Coordinated each year by United Way and the National Association of Letter Carriers, “Stamp Out Hunger” is the largest single-day food drive in the country. Held each year on the second Saturday in May, the collection drive provides much needed food to pantries throughout the United States. Best of all, donations remain local – meaning food given in Mayville will end up with local families. Participation is as simple as leaving non-perishable food for postal carriers.
Last year the Mayville Post Office collected 28 tubs and many more bags of non-perishable food, totaling 750 pounds, which was then donated to the Mayville Food Pantry.
