Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive collects 12k pounds of food in Wayne County
GOLDSBORO, N.C. (WNCT) — The National Association of Letter Carriers held their annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive recently.
Around 12,920 pounds of nonperishable food were collected by mail carriers on Saturday, May 10. They fell a little short of their goal, which was 15,000 pounds. This was the association's 33rd year holding the food.
'We are incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support from our community,' said Stacy Sinyard, Vice President of NALC Branch 876 and local food drive coordinator. 'Every can, every hour volunteered, and every act of kindness has a ripple effect. We may not have reached our goal this year, but the impact is real—and we're already optimistic about coming back even stronger next year.'
The food drive benefited the Community Soup Kitchen of Goldsboro, HGDC Community Crisis Center, The Salvation Army, the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, 4 Day Movement and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority's CHIPP Program.
