Our Brother/Sister Sparks Branch 2778 featured in Food Bank of Northern Nevada’s appreciation.

Thanks to our community, letter carriers, and volunteers, we’re already at 94,000 pounds of food and counting from this year’s Stamp Out Hunger food drive!

To everyone who set out a bag, we really appreciate you. To the letter carriers who picked up A LOT of bags in last Saturday's heat, we see the work, and our community feels that impact. And to our volunteers who jumped in to move and sort it all, thank you for getting in there and making it happen. Really grateful for this community and the way we all show up! 💙

On Armed Forces Day, we recognize all who serve in the United States military. Marked every year on the third Saturday in May, Armed Forces Day joins Memorial Day, Military Spouse Appreciation Day, and Victory in Europe Day, as part of Military Appreciation Month.

Honoring the people who have served in the military is a core part of the National Mall's mission. Join us in paying tribute to these dedicated servicemembers at sites like the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, the Korean War Veterans Memorial, the World War II Memorial, the World War I Memorial, and the District of Columbia War Memorial. Near the Mall, people can also visit the Air Force Memorial, Marine Corps Memorial, the Navy Memorial, and the African American Civil War Memorial. No matter where you're celebrating Armed Forces Day, we hope you'll join us in taking a moment to remember the courageous people past, present, and future who defend our nation.
