AMPN/MEMO SUPPORTING "FEDS FEED FAMILIES" FOOD DRIVE CAMPAIGN//

RMKS/1.  ON 1 JUNE 2011, THE OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT (OPM)
KICKED OFF THE THIRD ANNUAL "FEDS FEED FAMILIES" FOOD DRIVE
INITIATIVE.  THIS YEAR'S THEME IS "FEEDING FAMILIES ONE FED AT A
TIME."  THE DRIVE IS A DIRECT RESPONSE TO THE "UNITED WE SERVE ACT,"
SIGNED BY PRESIDENT OBAMA IN APRIL 2009 CALLING UPON ALL AMERICANS TO
CONTRIBUTE TO THE NATION'S ECONOMIC RECOVERY BY SERVING IN THEIR
COMMUNITIES.  THE FOOD DRIVE WILL RUN THROUGH 31 AUGUST 2011.

2.  OPM IS REQUESTING SUPPORT FOR THIS NATIONWIDE EFFORT.  I URGE ALL
NAVY AND MARINE CORPS ACTIVITIES TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO PARTNER
WITH LOCAL AREA FOOD BANKS AND INSTALLATION FAMILY SERVICE CENTERS TO
DONATE NON-PERISHABLE FOOD ITEMS FOR DISTRIBUTION TO THOSE IN NEED.

3.  THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THIS WORTHWHILE INITIATIVE.
