On Saturday, May 10, letter carriers in Bluffton and Beaverdam will participate in the Annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive. The nationwide food drive is the largest one day food collection in the country, filling food pantries and food banks.

It is easy to help and participate. Just collect and bag non-perishable food items or paper products and or toiletries and place by your mailbox (early Saturday morning) or bring
them to the Bluffton Post Office.

Do not include expired items or items in glass containers. Postal patrons who
live on walking routes are encouraged to bring their items directly to the
Post Office.

The Bluffton Food Pantry will be the recipient of the drive. The Community
Assistance Program operates the pantry to the benefit of local families in the
Bluffton School District who fall within a certain income guideline.

Sarah Shank and Jami Crawfis are the co-directors of the Community Assistance
Program.
