It's always the poor people who give the most. Where were the Gatsby partygoers' wallets when federal workers, thrown out of their jobs or working without pay, checked their resources to see how much we could afford to give to food banks? Yes, many civil servants are the working poor, and many hit food banks themselves. If you're not a greedy rich bastard, you, too, can write a check to your local community action center.

We donate nonperishable food items to our church and they distribute it to the local food pantry and also to a children’s shelter as well.

Very well pointed out about the low wages from wealthy corporate owners who use the government to make up at least some of the difference in what workers require. I noticed when employers cut hours back so they wouldn't have to provide benefits such as health insurance. Glad to also read of neighbors helping neighbors.
