Honoring Delivery Driver Heroes

This World Essential Workers Day, March 15th, we're celebrating delivery drivers and mail carriers who transform simple stops into moments of connection. They're the familiar faces who greet you with a smile, carefully handle your packages, and sometimes even befriend your pets. Let's take a moment to recognize how delivery drivers make a difference in our communities, one package at a time.

They Turn Deliveries into Life-Saving Moments

When delivery driver Wilmar noticed 92-year-old Gigi, who has advanced dementia, wandering alone, he didn't hesitate to help. After contacting her family through her medical alert bracelet, he made sure she got home safely. What started as a routine delivery turned into a moment of compassion.

They Develop Their Own Furry Fan Club

Mail time becomes play time for Will, a 6-year-old Weimaraner and Jack, a 3-year-old Bernedoodle, when mail carrier Anjelo makes his daily rounds. These two pups couldn’t contain their excitement to greet their favorite mail carrier. Jack ran so fast, he slid past Anjelo and right into the door!

They Are Met With Unexpected Challenges

A simple garage delivery became a hilarious pursuit when Jonathan encountered Fancy, a determined chicken ready to make a great escape. After going back and forth, Jonathan was able to get Fancy safely back inside her home.

They Face Wild Encounters

Not even a bear could stop this Amazon delivery driver from completing his route. Through Ring's Two-Way Talk feature, Josh, who was anxiously awaiting an Amazon package, noticed a bear in front of his home. To ensure his delivery driver was safe along the way, he alerted him of the unexpected intruder. “It seemed like he knew what to do and he kept calm,” Josh recalls. “The commitment to delivery was impressive!”

Their Kindness and Effort are Returned

When Rebecca and her husband started leaving snacks for their delivery drivers, they didn’t expect to capture so much joy. Sometimes small acts of kindness can make someone’s entire day!
