Every second Saturday in May , more than 10,000 cities and towns across America participate in the Stamp Out Hunger National Food Drive — the largest one-day food drive in the nation . Led by letter carriers , postal employees , and other volunteers , the |
drive has delivered more than one billion pounds of food over the past 24 years .
This year we are proud to announce that Upland will be taking part in this amazing event . Your donation will have a direct impact on our community , as all food will
|
be used to stock the shelves of Helping Hand ’ s food pantry .
To participate , simply place non-perishable food items in a grocery bag by your mailbox on Saturday May13th . Please set your bag out by 11am . Volunteers
|
will come by later that day to pick up the food . You may also participate by taking food directly to the Helping Hand at 64 W . Railroad Avenue , Upland , between 9 am to 3 pm .
Please remember to thank your local letter carriers for
|
their effort and support in making this food drive a success . Look for a “ Stamp out Hunger ” card in your mailbox the week of May 7-13 as a reminder .
With 49 million people facing hunger every day in America , including nearly 16
|
million children , this drive is one way you can help make sure our friends and neighbors in Upland have enough to eat .
