Today (5/12) Is Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive Collection Day! (+ more about Couponing for Community)

Don't forget that today, Saturday (5/12) is Stamp Out Hunger collection Day! Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is the largest one-day food drive in the nation! It’s so simple….all you need to do it fill the bag left in your mailbox with non-perishable items (or any bag will do since you may fill more than one).
Go through your stockpile and grab some cans of soup, boxes of cereal, juices, cookie or cake mix, pasta, and anything else you can think of or have a large supply of that is non perishable.
Just think, 1 out of every 6 Americans are suffering from hunger. That is truly heartbreaking. We have a strength to know how to use coupons and save a lot of money so why not share our wealth….
If you can participate, please visit the Couponing for Community  Facebook page to log your donation.  Here are some of the things I will be donating.....


Here's my donation picture for the C4C Facebook wall!
Couponing for Community Week is taking place THIS week (May 6-12)!  Thousands of couponers nation-wide will be ‘flexing our couponing muscles’ to make a united effort to GIVE to a local food bank, rescue mission or friend in need.

Our goal this year is 30,000 items donated in one week’s time and it’s easy to be a part of this nation-wide effort. Here’s how YOU can participate:

  • Make a donation to a local charity or friend.  Then head over and enter your total number of items donated on the ‘See Our Progress’ tab.  We’ll use the numbers entered to tally up the total donations made this week.
  • You can also post a picture of your donations on the C4C Facebook wall. Just for fun, add a sign with the number of items donated and your location donated/city, so we can see the locations being blessed by your giving across the country.  (MAKE SURE YOU PUT THAT "SAVING WITH CANDY" REFERRED YOU!)
  • Don’t have time to take your donations somewhere this week?  Don’t forget that Saturday, May 12 is also National Stamp Out Hunger day, so giving can be as simple as leaving a bag of non-perishable items by your mailbox that morning.
With your help, we know Couponing for Community 2012 going to be BIG!

If you haven’t yet, be sure to head over and ‘like’ the Couponing for Community facebook page so that you can be a part of the excitement all week long!
