Lend a can

 Every second Saturday of May, the US Postal Service and the National Association of Letter Carriers cooperate to support the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, the largest food drive in the nation.  All postal customers can participate by leaving a few non-perishable food items out at their mailbox for their regular postal carrier to collect.  The day of the drive this year will be tomorrow - Saturday, May 11, 2024.  So make an effort to help the 1 in 10 Americans who struggle with hunger.  It's simple to leave a can of food, a box of pasta, or a package of crackers or cookies out for your postal carrier, who will collect it.  The gathered food is then sorted and distributed by local food banks, so you will be helping your neighbors in need.  I will be leaving a bag of food out at the mailbox tomorrow for Shannon, our hard-working carrier.  I hope you'll join me!
