91. You also need to volunteer to stock the shelves.
So many of these pantries are run by one or two persons. In my small town after the Boy Scout or school drives they are overwhelmed by the amount of food and need all the help they can get organizing the larder. One or two days a week is nothing if you have the time.

I am retired and don't spend my extra time with the Tea Party crowd, so I do have the time. It gives you a sense of well being to help these struggling families feed their children. How can anyone not want to help their fellow man? How did this country get so off kilter?
