Letter carriers in Austin and Mower County thank all who generously gave to our recent food drive.

You really came through as we collected over 13,700 pounds of much needed food for our local food shelves.

Thank you Janet Anderson and KAAL-TV, John Wright and KAUS AM/FM, the Austin Daily Herald and KIMT-TV for helping get the word out. For your continued support, we thank Hy-Vee and Jim’s.

Our gratitude goes to the volunteers from the Austin High Honor Society and Sharon Alms and Gerard’s.

We appreciate city church for your assistance.

Finally, thank you Mayor Stiehm and the city council for your year-to-year support.

We will be at it again next year, the second Saturday in May, to help provide food for those in our area who need it.

Bob Rosel

Food Drive Coordinator
