Just a reminder for those who participate, tomorrow, May 12, is the letter carrier's food drive. In my area we just put our contributions on the porch and the letter carriers pick them up.

We have our little blue grocery sack sitting on the kitchen table as a reminder to fill it up. We participate each year. Thanks for posting.

We have not received the info and I met my mail carrier at the door this morning.  I thought this food drive was across the nation.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!

@SXMGirl.  The Food Drive is voluntary. A post office has the choice of participating or not.

We have ours ready to and do it every year. Our mail lady has to make serveral trips to get all the bags back because everyone in our neighborhood participates. It is a wonderful thing.

I did receive a reminder card and my bag is ready to set out by my mailbox in the morning.

 

Thanks for the reminder!

We live in a community with a mailbox stack.......mail isn't delivered to each home individually.  I saw one blue bag out there early this morning, and when the mailman came, I asked if he was taking any bags today.  He said yes, so I gave him mine, too.

 

If everyone in our community donates a bag tomorrow, I wonder if the little mail delivery truck will be dragging the ground with all the weight of canned goods.  We have many donation-oriented, charitable neighbors, so I expect to see a flood of blue sacks out there tomorrow.
