2. DONATE CASH:

Why are cash donations so valuable to a food shelf? Here's what $10.00 buys:

A small donation can have a BIG impact when food shelves stretch their dollars by purchasing through their local food banks and vendors. For every $1.00, we can purchase up to 8 pounds of food.

Does your employer have a matching gifts program? Find out and stretch your donations further.
