Many people struggle with food insecurity during the holiday season.

This is a time when food banks and other charitable organizations are in high demand. Here are some items that these organizations need most:

Non-perishable food items: These include canned goods, pasta, rice, cereal, and beans. 

Protein items: These include canned tuna, chicken, and peanut butter,

Personal care items: These include shampoo, soap, and toothpaste.

Diapers and wipes: These are often in high demand for families with young children.

Gift cards to grocery stores: These allow families to choose the food items that they need most.

In addition to these items, food banks and other charitable organizations also need financial donations. These donations allow them to purchase food and supplies, as well as to provide other services such as transportation and counseling.

Here are some ways that you can help food-related charities during the holiday season:

Donate food items: You can donate non-perishable food items, protein items, personal care items, diapers, and wipes to your local food bank.

Volunteer your time: Food banks and other charitable organizations always need volunteers to help with sorting food, packing boxes, and distributing food to families in need.

Donate money: Financial donations are always welcome and can be used to purchase food and supplies, as well as to provide other services such as transportation and counseling.

Even a small donation can make a big difference.
