WASHINGTON, 17 de marzo de 2025 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- Los carteros que salvaron a un hombre atrapado en un accidente automovilístico ardiente, rescataron a un residente de un asaltante que empuñaba un cuchillo, liberaron a una niña pequeña del agarre de un perro que la arrastraba por el césped o desplegaron métodos creativos para ayudar a los niños de familias empobrecidas a celebrar la Navidad, se encuentran entre los que serán honrados el jueves 20 de marzo.

Tesfaye Deyasso de St. Louis Park, MN, entró en acción cuando vio un automóvil desviarse de una carretera y chocar contra una barrera, ayudando a sacar al conductor segundos antes de que el vehículo estallara en llamas. Es el Héroe Nacional del Año 2025. El héroe de la región oriental es Brian Meyers Sr., de Johnstown, Pensilvania, quien abordó a un hombre que apuñalaba a una víctima y sujetó al sospechoso hasta que la policía lo arrestó. El héroe de la región central, Rungphet Bodnar, notó a una niña atrapada en las garras de un perro en Flint, Michigan, mientras los niños gritaban en una parada de autobús cercana. Con su spray para perros, Bodnar ayudó a liberar a la niña, que se sometió a múltiples cirugías antes de regresar a la escuela un mes después. Matthew Ross Sr. de Syracuse, Nueva York, localizó a estudiantes cuyas familias con dificultades se mudaban constantemente y les trajo regalos que cambiaron su perspectiva. Es el Humanitario del Año.

Varios otros transportistas también están siendo reconocidos como 2025 Heroes. Representan a miles de carteros que no solo entregan el correo de la nación seis o incluso siete días a la semana, sino que a menudo ayudan en situaciones urgentes que involucran accidentes, incendios, delitos o crisis de salud, o ayudan a mejorar las comunidades en las que trabajan.

Topeka, KS El cartero Gerald "Jerry" Loney cuidó a un hombre ensangrentado que acababa de intentar suicidarse, hablando y rezando por el hombre mientras también llamaba al 911 para pedir ayuda, incluso cuando Loney, que sufre de trastorno de estrés postraumático, superó su propio trauma para ayudar a su cliente. Es el héroe de la región occidental.

El Premio Vigilant es compartido por dos transportistas. Michael Waite de Meridian, CT, alertó a los residentes de 14 casas adosadas que su complejo estaba a punto de ser envuelto por las llamas, lo que les permitió huir a tiempo. El cartero de Laurel, MD, Taya Cradle, salvó a un hombre inconsciente acostado frente a un ascensor en un edificio de apartamentos de gran altura, siguiendo las instrucciones sobre cómo dar RCP después de llamar al 911.

Dos transportistas también compartieron el premio por Actos Honorables. El transportista de Long Island, Nueva York, Skyler Wilburg, con solo nueve meses en el trabajo, rescató a una anciana a punto de ser atropellada por su SUV rodante, arrastrándola desde debajo del vehículo antes de saltar dentro del automóvil para pisar los frenos. David Moulton, de Salem, Massachusetts, rescató a un niño de 3 años que corría hacia una intersección concurrida.

El Premio a la Asociación fue ganado por Flushing, Andrew Fontanetta de Nueva York y Anthony "Tony" Paolillo por liderar los esfuerzos de donación de sangre de su sucursal local en sus 21 estaciones postales. En las últimas dos décadas, los miembros de la sucursal han hecho 1.500 donaciones para ayudar a salvar vidas.

La National Association of Letter Carriers 2025 Heroes of the Year (Asociación Nacional de Carteros 2025) será honrada por el presidente de NALC, Brian L. Renfroe, en un almuerzo especial al mediodía del jueves 20 de marzo en el Embassy Suites DC Convention Center, 900 10th St. NW, Washington, DC 20001.

******

NALC representa a los carteros de todo el país. Sus 295,000 miembros lo convierten en el más grande de los cuatro sindicatos que representan a los empleados del Servicio Postal de los Estados Unidos. Fundada por veteranos de la Guerra Civil en 1889, NALC es uno de los sindicatos más antiguos del país.
