Help Puerto Rico and U.S.V.I. – Reduce post office rates on flat rate boxes to PR and U.S.V.I.

  • by: Yadira S
  • recipient: Megan Brennan, Postmaster General, US Postal Service
Puerto Rico is going through the worst humanitarian crisis the island has ever seen and they need our help. For a lot of people the only way to help is by mailing food and other supplies to our family, friends, and even strangers, but the shipping costs are very limiting and finding financial donations is difficult.

UPS has already offered lowered rates, but they are still costly and most people would rather use the post office due to their reliability.

We are asking that the US Postal Service help the American citizens in Puerto Rico and the U.S.V.I. by offering a discounted rate for Flat Rate boxes sent to these islands for the remainder of the year.

This would alleviate much of the financial burden for those who want to help and would help people in the island receive those much needed supplies.

The people of Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands will always remember and support those who help us when we're in need.
Update #36 years ago
I’ve sent two emails to the USPS postmaster general, Megan Brennan, as well as the Vice President of Retail and Customer Service Operations, the Manager of Public Relations, and the Public Relations Representative in charge of pricing and marketing. I’m still waiting for a response, so I want to ask of everyone to keep sharing this petition and make some noise, so they know how important it is to us that the people of PR and athe USVI receive all the help they can get. Please keep sharing!

Power and clean water are still out for many residents - U.S. citizens!! We need to do all we can. Thank you for your support!
