Saturday May 14, 2016

The nation’s largest one-day, providing letter carriers, other postal employees and thousands of volunteers across the nation the opportunity to meld their forces together to conduct the drive in their local communities.

Items most requested are Cereal, Pasta, Spaghetti Sauce, Rice, Canned Fruits and Vegetables, Canned Meals (such as Soups and Chilli), Juice, Peanut Butter, Macaroni and Cheese, Canned Protein (including tuna, Chicken and Turkey), Beans (Canned or Dry)

Those who want to donate can leave nonperishable food out in the bag by their mailbox, preferably Saturday morning. A letter carrier will pick it up during their regular postal delivery route and take it to a food bank in the community. The National Association of Letter Carriers organizes the annual drive.
