Letter Carriers food drive collects 70.7 million pounds of food
The National Association of Letter
Carriers national food drive on May 12
collected 70,745,176 pounds of non-
perishable food nationwide, reported
union President William H. Young. It
marks the fourth year in a row that citi-
zens donated more than 70 million
pounds of food to the needy through the
union’s “Stamp Out Hunger” drive.
In Oregon and Southwest Washing-
ton, Letter Carriers collected more than
1.6 million pounds of food, surpassing
its statewide goal of 1.5 million pounds
of food and increased more than 14 per-
cent over last year’s totals.
The NALC food drive takes place
on the second Saturday in May. It’s the
largest one-day food drive in the nation.
