Amid the suspension of the SNAP (food assistance) program, remember that donating money to your local food bank goes *much* farther than donating food. Food banks can utilize discounts from suppliers not available to the public, plus they need your funds for transportation, storage, and distribution of food.
Whatever you do, resist the temptation to clean out your expired or expiring food from your pantry to donate to your food bank. Those donations are disruptive to their work.
