Letter carriers across the country will be picking up more than mail on Saturday, May 10 during the annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, an event organized by the National Association of Letter Carriers.

Michigan City residents are encouraged to leave donations of non-perishable food items by their mailboxes on Saturday, May 10 to be collected by the letter carriers. The Salvation Army of Michigan City is pleased to be the local recipient of these donations, filling the shelves of its food pantry with the items given so generously by the community. These items stay in Michigan City and will go to families in need. Currently, the food pantry is in most need of protein sources – canned meats, peanut butter, and other high protein items, although any non-perishable food items that are not open or expired are accepted. The food pantry also accepts donations of diapers, paper products, and personal hygiene items.
