Giving Back

The Hawaii Local was one of several unions helping out at the National Association of Letter Carriers Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive this past May at the Hawaii Foodbank, a nonprofit charity that collects, stores and distributes food to those in need. This year, the public donated more than 526,000 pounds of canned goods, which was then sorted by hundreds of volunteers and distributed across the state.
