OKLAHOMA CITY -- One of Oklahoma's music stars made a trip home to help out the Regional Food Bank Saturday.

Graham Colton put down his guitar to lend a hand as thousands of food items poured into the food bank as part of the USPS and Regional Food Bank's Stamp Out Hunger food drive.

Thousands of metro residents left canned foods by their mailboxes Saturday morning. Postal workers pulled double duty dropping off mail and picking up cans.

Colton said he definitely had his work cut out for him.

"My muscles are pretty tired. I'm a musician, so I don't have big muscles, but I'm lending a hand. Doing all that I can," Colton said.

The organizers of the food drive hope to raise 700,000 pounds of food.
