Interesting that you provide paper towels when clean rags work just as well, and can be reused.

If you give a peanut butter why don't you also give them jelly with a loaf of bread If you give away tuna fish why don't you also give some mayonnaise and sweet relish and a loaf of bread If you giving away some macaroni why don't you also give away a meet. And give away good portions and stop giving away food like people don't want to be full. Play feel like they went shopping. Will let him feel like a major grocery store have just went through the aisles packing bags and brought it to their house. Stop making it feel and look cheap. Charities always had a belittling sense a display and delivery. Charities don't mean any harm. It's just the way it comes out If you're passing out toilet paper why give anybody one role When is the last time you went to the store and said I just need one roll of tissue. If you're giving them tissue give them a four pack or eight pack or 12 pack. Can you give away food saying it's for a family of two or four, but the amount you give them you act like that just going to eat one time a day for whole week. Why do pine trees only serve food a certain days in the week the only one or two hours. If you serve food Mondays and Wednesdays. You don't think people are hungry Tuesdays Thursdays Fridays Saturday and Sundays. Why we don't have charities that serve every day and all day like a job. If we had a shelter we will get old cheap cars Why not get real full beds donated to the shelter where they can sleep on king size queen size mattresses Why are a lot of shelters filthy dirty and disgusting Why it can't look and and feel like a five-star hotel Call I know you probably think I'm being ridiculous. But why is that because I'm talking about charity. Charity means love. Do you love yourself. Do unto others as you would do to yourself.

Food Banks help people by providing foods to supplement what they already have, don't look a gift horse in the mouth, they do the very best they can, so be grateful. If they give peanut butter, you can use it with bananas, tuna can be cooked with fried onions, tomato sauce, rice and peas, or make a casserole using pasta and celery or mushroom soup. There are many things folk can do to be creative and stretch what they have. Being a long term prepper enables even those on a low incomes to be more food secure, even if only a couple of items are stashed, they add up.. How else do you think people survived during wartime? They did the very best they could with what they had and never wasted anything, ever!

Sometimes pantries don’t have the pair. All foods are donated.

Why do food pantries give families peanut butter. When is the last time any of you was hungry An needed some food and said man I wish I had me some peanut butter. If you're feeding hungry people why do food pantries give people a big box of cereal and no milk. Charities are good because they help where they do. But charities also make people feel degrading. Charities need continue but we need to do it a better way.

Peanut butter is an inexpensive form of protein. Obviously, you have not been hungry, if you were, you would be grateful rather than critical. What were you expecting, a steak dinner? Even if they give a big box of cereal and no milk it can be made into bars without milk, and will still help save money. If people are poor, many qualify for EBT, plan accordingly, buy milk with EBT. Having an attitude of entitlement, is unbelievable. Food Banks provide a hand-up, they are not intended to be 'The Nanny State providing one's every need from cradle to grave.' Everyone is subject to times of difficulty when help would be benefitial, use it, and pay it back when you are able. To do so restores a sense of pride and restores dignity, as does volunteering. Providing food, sometimes comes with invitations to partake in religion. Ideally, giving without expectation would be preferable, but it is what it is. Actions always speak louder than words. At least volunteers care enough to help others.
