Letter Carriers’ national food drive May 14

The National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) union will conduct its 13th annual national food drive to “Stamp Out Hunger” May 14 in more than 10,000 cities and towns across America. Letter carriers will be collecting food donations as they deliver mail along their postal routes. According to NALC President William H. Young, donations collected from postal customers will be delivered to local food banks and pantries, providing an opportunity for residents to help the less fortunate in their own communities.

Residents of Brick are being asked to leave nonperishable food donations in a bag near their mailbox May 14 before the arrival of their letter carrier. The donation will be taken to the post office and then delivered to a local food bank or pantry. Glass containers or out-of-date items should not be included. Details: (732) 477-0100.
