Once again, members of the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) delivered for Oxford-Orion FISH.

On Saturday, the NALC’s 27th Annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive collected a total of 35,228 pounds of non-perishable food items to stock the shelves of FISH’s pantry at 1060 S. Lapeer Rd., just south of Drahner Rd.

Letter carriers and volunteers collected 16,000 pounds from the Oxford post office and 19,228 pounds from the Lake Orion post office, according to Julie Howald, vice president of the FISH board.

Since 1973, FISH has been providing free groceries to families, individuals and senior citizens who need help because they are living on low or fixed incomes, or have fallen on hard times due to unemployment, illness or other personal crises.
