Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive
Saturday, May 8
Join ECHO for our largest food drive of the year in partnership with the United States Postal Service. Community-donated food is collected and delivered to ECHO to help keep our food pantry stocked for families in need. Last year, over 80,000 lbs of food were donated, and we hope to exceed that this year. Volunteers play a key role in transporting, sorting, and storing food at ECHO’s Resource Centers to support neighbors throughout Eastern Hillsborough County.
