You can help your letter carriers “Stamp Out Hunger” in our community by participating in the country’s largest one-day food drive on Saturday, May 11! It’s easy to participate. Look for the blue donation bags in your mailbox the week leading up to the food drive, and place your donations of non-perishable food in the bag and leave it by your mailbox on May 11. Your letter carrier will do the rest, picking up donations and delivering them to Food for People and their network of countywide food pantries.

Last fall we received an abundance of donations of apples to our Gleaning program, but some of the apples could not be distributed in our food pantries, so in order to divert them from the waste stream we partnered with Humboldt Cider Co. to turn them into cider! This is the 3rd year we’ve partnered with Humboldt Cider Co. to produce “Cider for People.”

Senate President Designee Mike McGuire has teamed up with Food For People, KHUM radio and six local high schools for the annual Humboldt Holiday Food Drive for eight years in a row.
