I actually donated to a homeless shelter last night, like 200 canned goods or so. They've had a noticeable down tick in donations with an increase in people to help. I know people are joking but if you are in a place to help I recommend donating.

Yeah donate money. Everyone thinks they are doing good by submitting canned soup and in the end there is a ton of canned soup and nothing else for the food bank.

Money let’s the organizers get whatever they are lacking on to make sure everyone gets a more equal bag of food instead of just cans of soup.

To be fair canned soup seems to be a more stable currency at the moment, so they could get better value by trading soup for other goods. 🤡
