Are you a busy person who wishes you could do more? We have a clear philosophy: start where you are and take one step forward. Choose a schedule you can keep and commit to one five minute act of resistance. It can be daily (while you wait for the coffee to perk) or weekly (during your lunch break Wednesday) or even monthly. What’s key is this: it should be a little more (or in addition to) what you’ve done.
Food banks can stretch your dollar further by buying what they really need at wholesale. If the holiday season feels busy don’t grab a few sale cans to throw in a box — donate that money to the food bank directly. If you’re able, make it recurring.

Funding runs out again JAN 31st. ICE funding is on the line, and ACA subsidies are stalled in the Senate, so we need another shutdown. SNAP won’t be on the table this time thanks to some savvy negotiation by the Dems, but it’ll still hit the economy hard, and government offices will close or be on thin staff. From taxes to Medicare issues, do what you can now and prepare for economic wartime.
