Each year, the National Letter Carrier's Association (NALC) hosts Stamp Out Hunger, a nationwide food drive where community members are encouraged to leave non-perishable food items by their mailbox and mail carriers will collect it and donate the items to local food banks. This event contributes thousands of pounds of food to food banks each year.
You can also make a monetary donation and Harvest Hope will turn your dollar into meals!
In Support of Harvest Hope Food Bank
Harvest Hope is South Carolina’s largest food bank, providing over 25 million meals on average to neighbors in need across the Midlands, Pee Dee and Upstate. Harvest Hope is on a mission to eliminate hunger and food insecurity in South Carolina. We rescue nutritious food from stores throughout the state and distribute it to food pantries, shelters, and soup kitchens.
We operate programs that provide food for our most vulnerable citizens – children, seniors, and rural residents who don’t have access to grocery stores. We also run our own emergency food pantries in Greenville and Columbia where anyone in need can get a week’s supply of groceries for free.
Harvest Hope began in 1981 as the result of a shared vision of business leaders and the faith community, who set out to provide for the hungry in Columbia. Since then, Harvest Hope has increased its mission to feed the hungry across 20 counties in South Carolina.
