Nation’s
Largest Single-Day Food Drive to Benefit Feeding America Food Banks and
Other Hunger Relief Organizations Nationwide on May 14

CHICAGO, March 23, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Entertainer and entrepreneur Nick Cannon will join Feeding America, the National Association of Letter Carriers and Campbell Soup Company in their annual fight to Stamp Out Hunger across America on Saturday, May 14.

Now in its 19th year, Stamp Out Hunger
has become the nation’s largest single-day food drive.  In 2010, letter
carriers collected a record-setting total of 77.1 million pounds of
food donations along their postal routes. This pushed the 18-year total
to more than one billion pounds of food.

As a hunger relief advocate and the newest member of Feeding America’s Entertainment Council, Nick Cannon
is supporting the letter carriers by appearing in radio and print
public service announcements.  Both promote the campaign and urge
Americans to help their neighbors in need by donating a sturdy bag
containing non-perishable foods – such as canned soup, canned
vegetables, pasta, rice or cereal – next to their mailbox prior to the
time of regular mail delivery on Saturday, May 14th.

Cannon also is
appearing in a television public service announcement which will be
available to view on the drive’s YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/StampOutHunger2011) as well as its Facebook fan page (www.facebook.com/StampOutHunger).  

“My family
turned to food pantries for assistance from time to time when I was
growing up, so I know first-hand how important this food drive is,” said
Cannon. “With more than 50 million Americans living at risk of hunger,
please join me and millions of other generous Americans on Saturday, May 14 by placing a non-perishable food donation next to your mailbox to help the National Association of Letter Carriers Stamp Out Hunger.”

Again this
year, Campbell will donate one pound of food (up to one million pounds)
to the Feeding America food bank network for every person who joins the Stamp Out Hunger Cause on Facebook.  Americans can trigger a donation by visiting www.facebook.com/StampOutHunger.
 Also supporting the drive as national partners are the U.S. Postal
Service, the National Rural Letter Carriers Association, Valpak, the
AFL-CIO, United Way Worldwide and Uncle Bob’s Self Storage.
