I volunteer at a food bank, everything we get is donated. Sometimes we have great stuff to give out, sometimes we have garbage.

At least you were able to get some thing.

I had literally typed up basically this exact comment, then deleted it because I figured they were just venting and it wouldn't be helpful, and then I came back because I wanted to make sure people understood that food banks aren't generally run by the government. They're nonprofits, but there is no minimum amount they are allocated. Since they mostly run off donations, and the economy is so terrible for everyone, it makes sense that they are hurting too. I'm sorry to hear they didn't have more, but often the things they do have are the little others can spare or staples that make sense to purchase with the little money they get. I'm glad you commented though because I'm not sure I would have made a top level comment about this, but imho it's worth mentioning. The people at the food banks really are trying their best to help.

i'm very pro food bank and pro mutual aid. we should always be having these conversations about allocation of resources. bless.
