Stamp Out Hunger

Saturday is the 14th Annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive

14th Annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive collects over 70 million pounds of food!

Each year, letter carriers in more than 10,000 cities and towns across America collect non-perishable food items donated by customers for the annual National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) Food Drive—the largest annual one-day food drive in the nation. Postal employees in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin Islands collect food and deliver it to local community food banks, pantries and shelters.

An estimated 38 million people face hunger every day in America, including more than 9 million children. This drive is one way to help those right in their own city or town who need help.

What Can You Do to Help??

1) Place bags of non perishables food items next to your mailbox on Friday night/Saturday morning.

2) Letter carriers will pick them up and deliver them to local food banks.

I need to remember to put my donation out Friday night. Last year I put it out Saturday morning but they must have already went around my neighborhood because when I got home from work the bags were still on the front step. You can also take the food to the post office if you live in a rural area or you get missed like I did.
