The United States Postal Service is set to participate in the annual Stamp Out Hunger Program in a few weeks on Saturday, May 14th. Anyone wishing to donate non perishable food items are urged to do so by leaving the items with your postal carrier. Bates County Live spoke with letter carrier Laurie Lacy who has participated in the program since its inception, and she emphasized that all food collected in Bates County will go directly to the Community Food Pantry in Butler, Mo.
