Join The National Association of Letter Carriers Food Drive on Saturday, May 12, and help Stamp Out Hunger.
It’s simple to participate. Here’s how all citizens can help:

1) During the second week of May, watch your mailbox for two special items:
a card, announcing the National Association of Letter Carriers Food Drive and
a plastic bag.

2) Fill the bag with nutritious, nonperishable food such as tuna fish, peanut butter, soups, stews, chili, canned fruits, vegetables, beans, rice and pasta. Do NOT include glass items, homemade items or previously opened containers.

3) Place the filled bag by your mailbox in the morning on Saturday, May 12.

Letter carriers will collect nonperishable food donations left by mailboxes along their routes and take the donations to their local station. Trucks will pick up the food and deliver it to the regional food banks of the Oregon Food Bank Network.

This year, letter carriers hope to collect 1.5-million pounds of food. All donated food remains in the community where it was collected.
