Don't Throw That Out!
Your Leftovers Provide For Our Locals in Need

ABOUT
LEFTOVERS 4 LOCALS
Leftovers 4 Locals is a charitable organization created to collect leftover items from the Missouri Tri-Lakes area's vacationing guests as they're leaving town. These items are then donated to local Blessing Boxes, food pantries, and other programs that support the underprivileged and food-insecure families in our communities.
