Letter carriers' service to America extends above and beyond their daily labors. Every day, from coast to coast, countless members of the NALC step forward to enrich and strengthen our communities.

Active or retired, working individually or under the auspices of local NALC branches, these volunteers feed the hungry, comfort children facing grave illness, bring smiles to the face of lonely seniors, lift up those who are being left behind.

Whether it is a branch adopting a school or sponsoring blood drives, or one individual giving a much-needed coat to a child on her route, letter carriers build hope and help keep dreams alive.

The opportunities for service are countless: Community agencies like the United Way and Red Cross, local labor federations, religious and service organizations, they all seek helping hands year-round.

No matter where you live, letter carriers can—and do—serve above and beyond. You can proudly walk with them in service to America.
