I just want to say I am so pleased that we've moved into a community that gives so much to others. Food is very important and a "needs category" that often gets overlooked because there's a perception that there are so many foodbanks out there. If you visit you'll see empty areas, poor quality of food, etc.
Maybe we could start a routine where any club or activity we attend, we bring a non-perishables to donate. Can we place a box at various places? I'm new to the area so don't know where the banks are...but we have a truck and would be more than willing to schlep food somewhere!
During Thanksgiving turkeys are usually REALLY cheap. Is there a place that takes donated turkeys?
