Letter Carriers' National Food Drive
On May 10th letter carriers will deliver much
more than mail when they walk or drive their routes. They will gather food from
postal customers participating in the 16th annual
National Association of Letter Carriers National Food Drive, the
largest one-day food drive in the nation. To participate, place a box or can of
non-perishable food by your mailbox before your letter carrier delivers
mail on May 10th. The food will be taken back to a postal station, sorted and
delivered by union volunteers to an area food bank or pantry for needy families
to access.
When:
5/10/08
from 7 AM - 8 PM
Where: Homes across the nation.
