Help Stamp Out Hunger 2009

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

This Saturday, May 9, the US Postal Service’s mail carriers will be collecting non-perishable food items to benefit local food pantries under their Stamp Out Hunger campaign.  Our Litchfield community food pantry is a major recipient of food items from this drive.  You can help in the following ways:

  • Place bags filled with non-perishable food items next to your mailbox.  We always have needs for the following items: spaghetti sauce, peanut butter, jelly, canned spam, canned chicken, canned ravioli, and breakfast cereal.
  • Meet us at the Riverside Cottage across the street from the church to at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday to help sort out the donated food items.
  • Support the food pantry with a monetary donation.  Mail checks payable to Litchfield Community Church Presbyterian to 259 Charles Bancroft Hwy, Litchfield, NH 03052 (put Food Pantry on the memo line so we know where to direct your contribution).

Thank you for supporting us in this valuable mission to the Litchfield community.
