The United States Postal Service (USPS) has unveiled plans to honor the nation's health care workers with a commemorative Forever stamp, a collaboration with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This initiative seeks to recognize the relentless commitment and sacrifices made by health care professionals in ensuring public health and safety.
Designed by Bryan Duefrene, the stamp features a creative design of health-related icons that form the phrase "thank you," set against a white background. The terms "Healthcare" and "Community" are also depicted on the stamp, highlighted in gray and surgical green respectively, enhancing its visual appeal and thematic relevance.
Scheduled to be released in panes of 20, the Thank You Healthcare Community stamp will carry the same value as the current First-Class Mail 1?ounce price, irrespective of future rate changes, adhering to the Forever stamp's promise. The exact date and location for the stamp's official dedication ceremony will be announced at a later time.
This tribute by the USPS not only emphasizes the vital role of health care workers but also allows the public to express gratitude through their postal correspondences. The USPS has encouraged sharing and engagement with the initiative online using the hashtag #ThankYouHealthcareStamp.
Customers interested in this special issue can purchase the stamps and related philatelic products through various channels including the Postal Store on the USPS website, by phone, or at local Post Office locations across the country. Additionally, officially licensed stamp merchandise is available on Amazon, under the USPS Officially Licensed Collection.
