‘Stamp Out Hunger' food drive Saturday to benefit Foodbank
DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) — Miami Valley postal workers will be carrying more than letters on their routes Saturday.
The National Association of Letter Carriers is hosting its 32nd annual 'Stamp Out Hunger' food driver.
To take part, all you have to do is leave non-perishable food donations in a bag next to your mailbox.
All donations collected in the Greater Dayton area will benefit The Foodbank.
'Before 1970, letter carriers — many of them — could not sustain their living on just their letter carrier salaries,' said Mark Beach, vice president of the NALC Buckeye Branch. 'Many of them had to rely on food banks and things like that. So it's something that's dear to letter carriers' hearts.'
Organizers recommend setting bags outside as early as possible this morning to ensure they get picked up.
