KSP 'Cram the Cruiser' food drive underway statewide

The Kentucky State Police are encouraging Kentuckians to participate in the annual statewide “Cram the Cruiser” food drive to combat hunger throughout the state, which is running now through Dec. 5.

“Cram the Cruiser,” hosted by all 16 KSP posts, including Post 1 in Hickory. They aim to collect essential food items to brighten the holiday season for those in need. Troopers will be stationed at various grocery and retail stores across the state, ready to accept donations of non-perishable food items. 

Items suggested include canned fruit and vegetables, canned meat, macaroni and cheese, cereal, peanut butter, jelly, canned soups, chili or spaghetti sauce, brownie and cake mixes, coffee, water, powdered milk and juices. Food items may also be dropped off at post locations.

In 2024, KSP collected more than 204,000 pounds of food, with Post 16 in Henderson collecting the most donations at 115,000 pounds.
