<\/a>In support of the Marine Toys For Tots Foundation, U.S. Postal Service letter carriers will collect toys left at mailboxes as they deliver mail on Saturday, Dec. 1.<\/p>\nThe new, unwrapped toys will help brighten the holidays for less fortunate children.<\/p>\n

With 32,000 retail locations and the most frequently visited wWeb site in the federal government, usps.com, the Postal Service has annual revenue of more than $65 billion and delivers nearly 40 percent of the world’s mail.<\/p>\n
In 2011, the U.S. Postal Service was ranked number one in overall service performance, out of the top 20 wealthiest nations in the world, by Oxford Strategic Consulting.<\/p>\n
Black Enterprise and Hispanic Business magazines ranked the Postal Service as a leader in workforce diversity.<\/p>\n
The Postal Service has been named the Most Trusted Government Agency for six years and the sixth Most Trusted Business in the nation by the Ponemon Institute.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
