Stamp Out Hunger May 9th

National Association of Letter Carriers’ Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is Saturday, May 9, 2009.

Place a box or can of non-perishable food next to your mailbox before your letter carrier delivers your mail on May 9.  The carrier will do the rest, collecting and sorting the donations and delivering them to area food banks.

Last year, the NALC food drive delivered over 73 million pounds of food. This year’s food drive will be more important than ever.

Do your part to Stamp Out Hunger on 5/9/09!

Notable Quotable

“When a man tells you that he got rich through hard work, ask him whose.”

–Donald Robert Perry Marquis, author, humorist, columnist
