Allen County, IN (Indiana’s NewsCenter) - The community rallied to help fill food pantry shelves in the letter carriers' annual "Stamp Out Hunger" campaign.

Monday morning, the Associated Churches Food Bank said letter carriers collected hundreds of pounds of food.

A representative said the food filled more than a dozen semi trucks and should last until at least August to help feed people who can't afford meals on their own, a need that appears to be growing in our area.
