Stamp Out Hunger 2019

The 27th annual Letter Carriers’ Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is May 11, the second Saturday in May.

Stamp Out Hunger is the largest one-day food drive in the United States. Since 1993, when the national food drive began, letter carriers in every part of the country have worked with family members, friends, other postal co-workers and allies to use the second Saturday in May as a day to give back.

This time of year, the shelves of food pantries and other charitable organizations often are nearly empty. This is an important food drive that helps replenish low inventories for the summer months.

Food donations go to The Idaho Foodbank and its partner network for distribution to communities in Idaho.

Stamp Out Hunger one of our largest food drives of the year, and we need your help to feed hungry Idahoans!

This year you can also donate online:
