The results are in and Glen Cove letter carriers have proclaimed that their recent food drive was a huge success.

Thanks to our customers and their concern for those less fortunate, we collected more than 9,000 pounds of food to help stock local food banks. And all the food was collected in just one day!

This was the ninth year that Glen Cove letter carriers have participated, and along with the extreme generosity of the participating residents in Glen Cove, it proved to be the most successful year to date.

Once again, I would like to extend my most sincere thanks to the residents of this community for their kindness and their generosity.

I would also like to thank all the postal employees, many of whom donated their time and efforts to help make this food drive both memorable and successful.
