One of the largest single-day food collection initiatives is already underway and the Central Illinois Food Bank wants the community to be looking out for a donation notice in the mail. Brooke Dunn, Public Relations Manager for the Central IL Food Bank describes Letter Carriers’ Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, an annual initiative that makes donation of non-perishable food items as easy as leaving the bag of goods in your mailbox.
Dunn says the selection of homes is determined by the National Association of Letter Carriers.
Such food drives supply the Central Illinois Food Bank warehouse, to begin preparing distributions for the 140 partner agencies, like the Taylorville Food Pantry that receive these donations and supply communities with a variety of items.
