[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, that letter is rude and tone deaf. If I'd received such a letter, I'd respond and let them know that, and[b] I would strongly consider donating elsewhere. [/b]I'm happy to donate whatever is needed by a food bank; it greatly helps when they're explicit about what they need. Need perishable items? Sure, just let me know. But there's a polite way to do this that doesn't risk alienating donors or would-be donors. [/quote]

[b]To those of you saying things like this: shame on you. 
You are placing your feelings -which whatever, get over it- over the act of giving. Which is presumably why you participate in the first place? Or maybe not if you're that delicate over being told that your donations can't be used.

Big babies. [/b][/quote]

To those of you saying things like this:  shame on you.
You are saying that people who are GIVING-which is something they don't have to do- deserve to be treated like garbage.   Which is presumably something you must do otherwise you wouldn't feel the need to comment like this.   Does it make you feel better to call people, who are GIVING out of the goodness of their heart, names?

Sack of garbage.[/quote]
