[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know if you’re paraphrasing the letter or not but I do think it’s helpful for food banks to make donors somewhat aware of the limitations their clientele may have especially for perishables that go along with the nonperishables that are so often donated. (Also note: if the food bank serves a homeless population, things that require can openers or cooking may not be helpful.) I remember learning about tours kind of thing when I was younger and finding it eye-opening. This is why I donate money on a monthly recurring donation rather than goods to the food bank — they can budget and use my donation to buy those types of perishable staples more effectively without me as the middle man. If that is an exact quote, the tone is maybe a bit harsh though — you don’t want to discourage people from donating.[/quote]
