1 min read

For more than 20 years, the National Association of Letter Carriers has conducted an annual nationwide food drive on the second Saturday in May. Customers are asked to leave non-perishable food donations by their mailbox before their carrier arrives on Saturday, May 9. All food collected is donated to local food banks and stays in the community. The NALC food drive is held in 10,000 cities and towns in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Guam. Over the course of its history, the food drive has collected 1.3 billion pounds of food to help feed our neighbors.
