Mail carriers collect
400,137 pounds of food
The National Association of Letter Carrier's annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive on May 12 collected 400,137 pounds of food in Palm Beach County.
Residents were asked to donated nonperishable canned goods and leave them by their mailbox. Local mail carriers picked up the food to distribute to food pantries and soup kitchens because donations typically are low this time of year.
This is the 15th year of the food drive. Mail carriers around the United States participate in the country's largest one-day food drive. More than 200 volunteers worked at local post offices to move food out.
