That is right. When I was a kid, sometimes the food was low. I would have been happy as a clam to get a box filled with milk, bread, cheese, cereal, sandwich meat..etc..etc

I don’t know if my dad would’ve taken it unless we were truly down to nothing. It was the way he was. God I miss him everyday of my life.

Honest people ought not to be too proud for charity, as they may be in the position to give tomorrow. It is God’s business on earth.

I have to add something to my last post.
There were some nights I would have liked to receive some donated food.

Back at age 7 I thought that donated food was better than ANOTHER pot of beans.
But we never asked for help. My father would just work a second job and my mom would stretch the food budget a little longer.

Looking back I know now that I should have been very grateful for the small house, food and my mom and dad who took care of me. Lesson learned.

Back to the original subject. I know there is enough food being grown and processed to feed every American Citizen.

First the hungry need to find a food drop off location that serves a food bank. Go to the drop off spot when food is delivered. Write down your name and address and take the food.
