The bag is in the mail: ‘Stamp Out Hunger’ reminder

| How to help | West Seattle news

One more reminder, since our letter carrier just delivered our special blue bag for “Stamp Out Hunger” on Saturday, and we’ve got it filled up and ready to go (at right, it’s posed in the not-so-high-tech WSB HQ kitchen-counter equipment-charging center) … Besides being West Seattle Community Garage Sale Day (maps here!), Saturday is also the National Association of Letter Carriers‘ huge one-day-only nationwide food drive, and all you have to do is load up the blue bag (OR a regular grocery bag if you don’t get the special one) and, this Saturday morning, leave it by your mailbox, or your door if that’s where you get mail delivered. This is the 20th year for Stamp Out Hunger – read more about it here, and make this really simple good deed part of what promises to be a spectacular Saturday (May 12th).

Thanks for putting the word out WSB. This is a great cause and it’s very easy to participate so put out some non perishable food on Saturday and your letter carrier will take care of the rest. Many food banks will run out of food before the summer ends without this drive so let’s think of the less fortunate and donate. Saturday is gonna be a very hard day for us letter carriers since we have to deliver the mail and pick up all that food but it’s definitely worth it and it feels good to contribute to such a good cause. Donate Saturday may 12th! Thanks!

I want to second that thanks to our letter carriers. I am so appreciative of the work they do every day (yay Dan!) and doing this good deed on top of it all — way to go USPS!!!

Sorry, comment time is over.
