I love the sentiment! Food banks/pantries are such a good way to directly help people in need.
But… I had heard that it’s usually better to give cash to food banks/pantries rather than food, that way they can buy what they need generally* at better prices than we can get. But I’m not directly involved in food banks/pantries, so please correct me if I’m wrong.
Of course, if you can get mega deals on real food* with coupons or whatever, then of course that’s better.
**I’d also heard that food pantries get so much cranberry sauce donated during November, but cranberry sauce is nutritionally deficient, and that if you donate food, make sure it’s real food.
Crypto is faster. Even if you believe it’s a scam, you can always just buy $20K worth of ETH and then just cash it out immediately. Would take less than 2 minutes.

I clear out the grocery store canned and boxed goods aisles and donate everything to the food bank
