You can donate at my place. I live in free housing provided by the county govt, but they don't give me enough for the food I want. And there's no way I'm going to get a job. That's for suckers!

Go to the
Blue Ridge Area Food Bank website

Insert your zip code and it will tell you where you can drop off the food close to your home.

I have seen many temporary canned food and similar item drives being held at chruches, the library, and outside of schools. Sorry, I don't know of any permanent places to donate, but I would also help if I did.

I live by the motto if you feed a cat it wont go away. Therefore I never donate to bums.

Knock on your neighbors door, they probably starving and would love those unwanted pork-in-beans. I know few of my neighbor are starving, with those high mortgage payments and 4 cars.

Most churches has a food drive thing in the front where you can leave food to donate.

Theres other random food banks you can find that take food as well.

Boy Scout food drive pickup was this morning. It keeps the little buggers off the streets. But if you want to help hungry people, the professionals can turn dollars into food much better than you can, so send a check or do it on-line...

Go up to any median strip near a Costco's. There will be someone there ready to accept your generous donation of money or food. Sorry, we are not currently accepting any job offers at this time.
