Clean Out Your Freezer Day is Sunday

The Capital City area’s annual Clean Out Your Freezer drive is Sunday. From 1-4 p.m., Hunters for the Hungry volunteers will man 16 locations in East Baton Rouge, West Baton Rouge, Ascension, Iberville, Livingston, Pointe Coupee and West Feliciana parishes to help sportsmen prepare their freezers for the upcoming hunting seasons.

The volunteers will accept frozen meats and fish that will be distributed by the Greater Baton Rouge Food Bank to more than 100 shelters and soup kitchens in a 12-parish area. Donors will receive a receipt for their donations for possible tax write-offs.
