I was 14 years old and while in school i seen other students not eating lunch. I gave up my lunch to them. I did this a lot i could not sit there and eat knowing they were hungry. At age 17 i started sendind a $1.00 threw the mail to help feed the hungry. I now send $1.00 to $2.00 a month to. 20 different organizations that need help. I'm sending out. 20 tomorrow, I just put the $$'s in the envelops and the stamps on them. I also buy hat's and gloves and pass them out when i see a child cold. I take some too the schools, or pass them out on the buses. If i have a few extra $$ and i see a homeless person i give them a $ or change. We never know if or when we may need help. I give from the heart I love helping others.

The Cleveland Foodbank is an EXCELLENT organization dedicated to serving their community. They are a big group but always find the time for ANYONE in need. No one who calls, or goes to one of their food banks will go hungry. Need more places like this!
