#ForeverStampChallenge

In case you haven’t heard, the United States Postal Service (USPS) is in danger of running out of operational funds unless Congress intervenes. President Trump is willing to let the USPS go bankrupt, which will affect the lives of millions of Americans who rely on the postal service to deliver life-saving medication, mail-in ballots, and more. 

How to Take Part in the #ForeverStampChallenge

Take part in the #ForeverStampChallenge and support the USPS. 

1) Buy Stamps.

Buy stamps from your local post office or buy them online at usps.com/store.

2) Send Mail to 3 People.

Plus the person who tagged you! Send them mail — it doesn’t even have to be a letter. Send washi tape, a tea bag, stickers, a crossword puzzle, a newspaper clipping, a coloring page… be creative.
