Food Drive "Critical" For Struggling Families

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

“Food banks, pantries and shelters need our help more than ever this year,” says National Association of Letter Carriers President Fredric Rolando, noting that the NALC’s annual food drive to “stamp out hunger”– which is set for Saturday, May 8 – is fast approaching. “Millions and millions of families are suffering – struggling to make ends meet and put food on the table. As families count on them for support, they’re counting on us and we will not back off on our commitment.” Non-perishable donations can be left next to your mailbox on May 8. Persons who have questions about the drive at their location should ask their letter carrier or contact their local post office.
