Food Drive Faults
- Share via
Your report on the letter carriers’ food drive (“Letter Carriers’ Drive Nets 600,000 Pounds of Food,” May 14) prompts me to question the possible explanation for contributions being down this year.
Both my daughter (who lives in Placentia) and I (Garden Grove) purchased food items for the drive and left them as directed next to our mailboxes, with the food drive notice attached. Although we both received mail deliveries on Saturday, in each instance the bags of food were left uncollected, until we finally retrieved them at dusk.
If this happened to two in my family, how many other people’s offerings were ignored--and is it any wonder that collections were down!
