A concurrent RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE May 11, 2024, AS "letter carriers' stamp out hunger food drive DAY" IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

Whereas, every year on the second Saturday in May, letter carriers from across the country collect non-perishable food as part of the nation's largest one-day food drive. They distribute the donations to local food banks; and

Whereas, the Letter Carriers' Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive is just one example of how letter carriers work to make a difference in the lives of the people they serve; and

Whereas, since the pilot drive was held in 1991, more than one and a half billion pounds of food have been collected; and

Whereas, citizens of this State can support the food drive by placing non-perishable food items in or near their mailbox on Food Drive Day. Letter Carriers will pick up these donations while delivering the mail; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly appreciate the hard work and dedication that letter carriers show to their communities and encourage the citizens of South Carolina to participate in this year's Food Drive Day to help feed hungry people in our State. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize May 11, 2024, as "Letter Carriers' Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive Day" in South Carolina.
