We are new to TV and would like to donate to the food banks. Is there somewhere I can find places to donate. We are not affiliated with any churches or groups yet. Thank you

Wildwood Pantry is a big one adjacent to The Villages:

WILDWOOD FOOD PANTRY

Also, the Winn Dixie grocery store near Lake Sumter Landing (and maybe other Winn Dixies) have a $5 bag of food at each register that you can pay for, and the store delivers.

Welcome to The Villages!

There are also community food banks in Ocala and Leesburg.

For those who order from Amazon, you can use their Smile program to specify a charity to receive a percentage of your purchases. It's a very small amount per purchase, but in the aggregate it can be a nice chunk of change. For example, we direct ours to the Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida, and they have received almost $9K in total. Just log in at smile.amazon.com and it's all automatic.
