This year, the UFCW is once again partnering with the National Association of Letter Carriers to sponsor the 26th annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, which will take place on Saturday, May 12. This campaign, which is the largest single-day food drive in the country, is an opportunity for UFCW locals to make a difference in the lives of millions of America’s families who are suffering from the effects of hunger.
Last year, UFCW locals from across the country helped to collect 75 million pounds of food, the third highest total in the event’s history. This year, we are encouraging all UFCW locals and their members to get involved by collecting unopened, non-perishable food and placing the items in a bag next to their mailbox before their letter carrier delivers their mail on Saturday, May 12.
Help us make this year’s campaign an even bigger success. You can get more information about the campaign here. You can also contact Evan Yeats for a UFCW Stamp Out Hunger toolkit at eyeats@ufcw.org
Together, we can show our brothers and sisters who are struggling to feed their families that they are not alone, and make a positive difference in the communities we call home.
