I volunteer here in WA at our local food bank. We try for a supplement for three days a month, and never send anyone home empty handed. All kinds of people use our services. Some smell like cigarettes and alcohol. Some I see working at jobs that just don't pay enough. (many are working caregivers for the elderly) Everyone, no matter what their flaws deserves to not suffer from hunger. Sometimes it is a matter of lack of education, addiction, poor choices, and simple bad luck. I agree, support your food bank and soup kitchens. We have been very lucky that our community is very supportive. We fill a genuine, and growing need.
Life goes on, with you or without you.
