We are honored to have been awarded by the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) a “Heroes of the Year” Partnership award for the work we’ve done in support of the New York City Community.
Better Angel’s founder Ernest Twomley was joined by co-founders Heriberto Rodriguez and David Correa for the ceremony in Washington DC, hosted by NALC President Brian L. Renfroe. “More often than not,” said Renfroe, “our impact goes beyond just simply what our core mission is—and that’s delivering mail to the American people. No one knows our communities and our neighborhoods like letter carriers. We deliver on our routes six, and even seven, days a week. We get to know our customers.”
The National Association of Letter carriers represents over 280,000 active and retired letter carriers. The event was attended by journalists, members of the postal and labor community as well as postal service executives, including Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. DeJoy told the awardees, ““You epitomize the ideal of a public servant, and your actions reflect the very best expectations of the Postal Service and of the country.”
