Every year, my wife and I make a substantial donation to Food Bank of the Rockies......we are about to make another one shortly.
During Covid we doubled down and sent another one.....

I LOL when I see the food collection baskets in the grocery stores.....The idea is that you will buy stuff at their store, increasing that stores Revenue and Profits.........

Give the Food Bank money, and the organization can buy twice as many food products from a wholesaler............

And make sure the food bank is run as well as Food Bank of the Rockies, with an administration cost of like 3%. If you don't have money, volunteer your time at the food bank to help out....
