Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive The need for food relief has never been greater and neither is our determination to help. Throughout this pandemic, we have stepped ...up to help union members and struggling families keep food on their tables. We’re doing what the labor movement does best: joining together in solidarity, lifting each other up and serving our communities. The AFL-CIO is proud to partner again with the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) for the Stamp Out Hunger food drive campaign. Because of safety concerns, this year’s food was unable to happen as it usually does in May. This year’s campaign may be different because of the pandemic, but it is more important than ever. NALC is asking members of the community to participate by donating food directly to food banks in their area. Simply go to National Association of Letter Carriers AFL-CIO https://ecs.page.link/4qzoU ,select your state and find the food banks in your area. Please support in any way you can.
