June 13, 2025 – Thanks to the generosity of Oklahomans, letter carriers across the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma’s service area collected 503,291 pounds of food during the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive. The drive, which was presented by the American Fidelity Foundation and OG&E, also collected $118,454 in donations.
During the drive, Oklahomans were asked to leave a bag of nonperishable food donations by their mailbox. On May 10, letter carriers collected the donations along their routes and transported them back to their local post office for volunteers to sort. In the Oklahoma City metro, 370 volunteers helped sort donations at 20 post offices.
“We are incredibly grateful for the passionate support of our letter carriers, the generosity of Oklahomans and the commitment of our presenting sponsors, the American Fidelity Foundation and OG&E.” said Stacy Dykstra, chief executive officer. “Their dedication made Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive a success, once again, helping provide much-needed meals to our neighbors living with hunger.”
Letter carriers in 144 communities participated in this year’s Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive.
“Helping provide more than 760,000 meals through the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive shows the incredible generosity of Oklahomans and the power of community partnerships,” said Christi Woodworth, OG&E vice president of marketing and communications. “It’s inspiring to see how our employees, neighbors and partners come together year after year to support families facing food insecurity.”
The Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive has collected more than 14 million pounds in Oklahoma since it first began in 1992.
The Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is additionally sponsored by CSAA-AAA Insurance, Bank of Oklahoma, Diamondback Energy, Express Employment International, WEOKIE Foundation, Tyler Media, LocaliQ and Lamar Outdoor.
