🛍️ Let’s Stamp Out Hunger, together.

On Saturday, May 9, the United States Postal Service will host the 34th annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, the largest single-day food drive in the country.

Keep an eye on your mailbox next week. Many households will receive a postcard and donation bag from their letter carrier with details on how to participate.

Taking part is simple:
• Fill a bag with non-perishable food like canned goods, pasta, or cereal
• Leave it by your mailbox before your mail arrives on May 9
• Your letter carrier will pick it up

Every donation stays local and helps families right here in Merced County ❤️

This is one of the easiest ways to make a real impact in our community. If you’re able, we’d love for you to join in.

Once a month, this pantry partner in Atwater distributes food to about 120 families in their community.

Volunteers come together to pack boxes with essentials like cereal, bread, and meat, making sure neighbors have food for the days ahead.

This is what it looks like behind the scenes.

Partnerships like this are how food reaches families across Merced County, and we’re grateful to work alongside them.
