Letter to the Editor: Postal service food drive a huge success

Dear Editor:

I want to thank all the residents who participated in last weekend’s U.S. Postal Service food drive. 

The Downey Council PTA HELPS Food pantry received all the donations from the Imperial Highway Post Office and it was the size of two school drives. It will help our clients who are Downey residents and who receive food all year long.  Many clients are seniors and the others are families with children in our Downey Unified schools.  

Know that you truly made a difference in their lives by this small token of generosity and giving. Thank you, postal workers, for picking up these items.
 
Dorothy Pemberton
Director
