By Christopher Kelleher 

BROOKFIELD — Residents across Brookfield will have an opportunity tomorrow to help local families in need during the annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive.

The Brookfield Examiner spoke with staff at the Brookfield Post Office, who confirmed that both residents with P.O. Boxes or home mailboxes may drop off non-perishable food donations directly at the post office on Saturday during operating hours.

The Brookfield Post Office will be open tomorrow from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

Community members are encouraged to donate items such as canned vegetables, soup, pasta, rice, peanut butter, cereal, and other shelf-stable foods. Donations collected through the drive help support local food pantries and families facing food insecurity.

The annual food drive, organized by the National Association of Letter Carriers, is one of the country’s largest single-day food collection efforts and takes place in communities nationwide each year.

Residents planning to participate may bring donations during the morning hours while the post office is open or leave them near their mailbox tomorrow May 9th 2026
