“This past year, the need for food relief was greater than ever and so was our determination to help,” reports AFL-CIO president Liz Shuler. “We stepped up to assist union members and struggling families keep food on their tables through the pandemic as well as to support striking workers. We’re doing what the labor movement does best: joining together in solidarity, lifting each other up and serving our communities.” The AFL-CIO is once again partnering with the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) for the Stamp Out Hunger food drive campaign. The 2022 food drive is planned in person for Saturday, May 14. Because of concerns around the COVID-19 pandemic, the situation will be monitored closely to prioritize health and safety. This year’s campaign will help serve families affected by the pandemic and help give resources to striking workers around the country. “I urge all of you to help promote the Stamp Out Hunger campaign among your union members and affiliates,” said Shuler. “You can find more information on how to support these incredible efforts here. I recognize and thank each of you for your dedication to support our members and your communities this past year. Your determination and courage in the face of today’s challenges is nothing short of inspiring.” For more information, contact Kristie Small at [email protected]. Comments are closed.
