Letter carriers, the US Postal Service and so many other national and local partners come together to collect non-perishable food in 10,000 communities across the country to help hunger-relief organizations including food banks, food pantries, soup kitchens, and others. In Albuquerque, the food collected on Sat., May 13th benefits Roadrunner Food Bank.
Volunteers will be assigned to a specific post office where they will help unload letter carrier vehicles and begin food sorting along with Food Bank staff members.
Because volunteers will be working in a loading dock area with vehicles coming and going, for everyone’s safety the age limit is 12 years and older.
Volunteers ages 12-15 must be accompanied by an adult chaperone, at a ratio of 1 adult per 4 youth.
