Alabama window clerks walk (and run) for a cure in Aliceville

Every day at work, postal employees serve our communities, and many of us go the extra mile in our off time, too.

Aliceville Postmaster Ed Virden shared the following pictures and story:

On a cool, windy Saturday morning (last Saturday, April 21),  SSDA Sarah Johnson from Aliceville and SSDA Kim Spencer from the Carrollton Post Office took part in the 1st Annual Aliceville Walk for A Cure.

An energetic Sarah Johnson escorted at the head of the pack. 

This was a 2.5 mile course through the streets of Aliceville.  There were over 200 walkers and some runners.

$2600 was raised on this single event. All Proceeds went to Relay For Life, which is a team event to fight cancer.

Our thanks to Ed and especially to Kim and Sarah: it's a boost to everyone's morale to know that we work side by side with some good people.
