Good place to put the money. A few weeks ago NW Harvest actually ran out of food. Giving is way down and with the Boeing strike on top of the usual needs overwelmed the system. Food banks can do better with donations of money than cans of food. Large food manufacturers will sell them bulk food for penneys per pound. The product comes in by the container load and groups like the Rotarians donate their time to repackage it in family size containers. Think about that next time your temped to buy a few extra cans at the grocery store. It would be better to send a $5 check .
Here's a place that will use every cent toward the food
Rotary First Harvest

Bill Gates trusted Rotary with a $100 million donation, You can trust them too.

Sweet! Good job to both of you for keeping tabs on the funds and then being kind enough to donate the remaining proceeds like that. Very cool!
