Day 133: Fill a Bag, Feed Families

In the mail a few days ago, I received a notecard that read National Association of Letter Carriers- Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive. The note asked members of the community to fill a grocery bag with non-perishable food items and return it to the mail box by a certain day. The mail carriers then pick up the bags and take them to post office to be combined with other neighborhoods. My mom and I filled a bag of cans and dropped it off at the mailbox!

Apparently, this is the 21st Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive! The National Association of Letter Carriers run this event each year. You can learn more about the food drive and look for next year's Stamp Out Hunger date by clicking here.

Day 43: A Valentine for the Mail Carrier

While I was sick, I missed national Thank A Mailman Day. Today, I decided to take the liberty and give our mail carrier a valentine. I found a cute box of chocolate for $1 (not expensive at all), stuck a note on the box and then placed the valentine in our mailbox. Again, a very easy task. :)

I encourage you to, sometime soon, make a point to thank your mail carrier as well. What they do is a service to you, so even they deserve a little thank you every now and then.

 God Bless,
