Amid various bills, the Valpak, and a bunch of junk mail, I received a postcard today from the National Association of Letter Carriers regarding their 'Stamp Out Hunger' food drive. Now, today is Thursday (5/8) and the food drive is this Saturday (5/10) so it seems pretty obvious that that the NALC is a bunch of procrastinators, which could be why my US Weekly always shows up a week late.

Anyway, the food drive is a great idea and super easy. Just put some non-perishable food items in a bag by your mailbox and voila! it gets delivered to local food banks. They just ask that you do not include expired items (because hungry people don't like stale food) or anything in a glass container.

What: Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive
When: Saturday, May 10th, 2008
How to Donate: Leave non-perishable food items by your mailbox

Let's hope my neighbors don't decide to go grocery shopping.
