The U.S. Postal Service will again join forces with the National Association of Letter Carriers, Campbell Soup and other partners to Stamp Out Hunger across America, beginning with a brief kick-off event. The annual Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive, scheduled for Saturday, May 11, provides assistance to the millions of Americans who are struggling to put food on their tables every day. Now in its 21st year, the Stamp Out Hunger effort is the nation’s largest single-day food drive.
