By SALINA POST
Volunteers are needed to help with the Saturday portion of the annual Mail Carriers Food Drive in May.
This year you will have two opportunities to contribute non-perishable food items to the drive, which benefits the Salina Emergency Aid Food Bank.
From 8 a.m. to noon on May 13, you can drop off food items in the parking lot of the Salina Post Office, 211 E. Ash. Postal carriers and Eagle Radio personalities will be on hand to collect food that day.
If you can't make it on May 13, you can put non-perishable food items by your mailbox for collection on May 14.
You also can participate by volunteering to help with food collection on May 14. According to information from the Salina Emergency Aid Food Bank, volunteers are still needed to work 2+ hour-long shifts throughout the day. Volunteer jobs include the following.
●Drivers and helpers around Salina
●Lifters and sifters at the Salina Post Office
●Movers from the post office to the food bank at 255 S. Chicago
●Sorters at the food bank
