10 Branches Win Food Drive Awards

10 Branches Win Food Drive Awards
The record 73.4 million pounds of food collected in the 2009 Letter Carriers’ National Food Drive came 
because of a determined effort by NALC branches all across the country to succeed despite the nation’s 
economic downturn. 

The 10 branches below were the tops in their membership categories in the amount of non-perishable 
food collected along their postal routes, according to results received at NALC headquarters. They will 
be awarded a special NALC plaque and a food bank selected by each branch will receive 1,000 cans of 
soup from Campbell Soup Company.
