  • The National Association of Letter Carriers will hold its annual "Stamp Out Hunger" food drive Saturday, May 10, in 10,000 cities in all 50 states.

The Stamp Out Hunger food drive, scheduled for Saturday, May 11, 2025, is a nationwide initiative aimed at supporting local food banks, including the Montgomery Area Food Bank in Alabama. Organized by the National Association of Letter Carriers, the drive encourages residents to leave non-perishable food items by their mailboxes for postal workers to collect and deliver to food banks. This year's event is crucial as it helps address the increased demand for food assistance, exacerbated by economic challenges. The Montgomery Area Food Bank, serving 35 counties, relies on such drives to stock its shelves, especially during the summer months when school meal programs are unavailable. Donations of high-protein foods like canned tuna, peanut butter, and beans are particularly encouraged to help meet the nutritional needs of the community.
