For 24 years, the National Association of Letter Carriers has organized its Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, the nation’s largest one-day food collection effort. On Saturday May 14, residents were urged to leave donations of non-perishable food items on their porch or near their mailbox. Postal workers from across the country then collected the donations as they delivered mail along their route.
Over 10,000 cities and towns participated in this year’s drive. And, as you can imagine, transporting the donations to local food banks/pantries is an enormous job. Once again, our network of socially-responsible movers was up to the task!
Move For Hunger partners from across the United States volunteered their time and resources to help deliver a portion of the donations to ease the burden on food banks and pantries. These extraordinary acts of generosity resulted in over 252,000 pounds of food – that’s the equivalent of over 210,000 meals – being provided to families in the communities they serve.
The timing of this massive food drive couldn’t be better. Food Banks face their greatest need during the summer months, when classes end and children are no longer receiving free or reduced-cost meals at school. In addition, every dollar that food banks can save on transportation is another dollar that can be spent on the lifesaving services they provide to their clients.
THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to this year’s effort!
