On Saturday, Delaware letter carriers will collect non-perishable food items for the Food Bank of Delaware under the Stamp Out Hunger program.
Individuals can help by leaving a bag of food next to their mailbox before the time of regular mail delivery on that day.
Suggested food items are:
- Peanut butter
- Cereal
- Pasta
- Macaroni and cheese
- Canned soups
- Canned meats
- Tuna fish
- Canned fruits and vegetables
- Food in glass jars should not be donated.
Donations will help to provide food for the 1 in 10 food-insecure Delawareans.
Demand for food donations is increasing as pandemic-related benefits expire.
