SUMMARY:Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, letter carriers across the country head out on their routes on the second Saturday in May to collect donations of non-perishable food items to benefit local food pantries. Since launching in 1993\, the National Association of Letter Carriers’ annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive has grown into the nation’s largest one-day food drive\, helping to fill the shelves of food banks in cities and towns throughout the United States. \nThe need is great\, but you can help. We invite you to join letter carriers and our partner organizations in the fight to end hunger in our communities by participating in the annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive. \nSimply leave your donation of non-perishable food in a bag near your mailbox on the second Saturday in May\, and your letter carrier will do the rest.

SUMMARY:United Way Day of Caring
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 Days of Caring will take place from May 8th to May 10th\, coinciding with the National Letter Carriers’ Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive. \nIn 1992\, about 250 volunteers gathered to help spruce up what was then the YWCA campus on North Wells Street. That event has now grown into an opportunity for thousands of volunteers to come together to make Allen County a better place to live and work. Those who roll up our sleeves and raise our hands know this event as Day of Caring. \nDuring this event\, we connect volunteers with dozens of nonprofits for a day filled with hard work\, teamwork\, and meaningful change. It’s a fantastic team-building opportunity for families\, coworkers\, teens\, and clubs. It also allows individuals to learn more about local human service needs\, discover a cause they’re passionate about\, and take action to make a difference. \n
