Macomb, IL – Illinois State Police Troop 4 is hosting a community food drive tonight, inviting residents to drop off non-perishable donations at Walmart in Macomb from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
According to a post from Illinois State Police Troop 4, the event supports local food pantries across the Troop’s coverage area. Officers will be on-site collecting items such as canned goods, boxed meals, and other shelf-stable foods to help restock local food banks ahead of the fall season.
The collection follows Tuesday’s event at Hy-Vee, where troopers also accepted donations for the same initiative. Troop 4’s ongoing effort aims to connect with the community and support families facing food insecurity.
Organizers are encouraging residents to stop by during the evening hours to contribute to the cause. “Help us be the change,” the department wrote in its post.
The initiative is part of a broader push by Illinois State Police to foster community involvement and assist regional hunger relief programs throughout western Illinois.
