Approx. $60 worth of food for only $30, everyone can get it, no income requirements, etc, at all! Helping with distribution is an easy way for someone to help, and someone may not know that.
Klue mentioning what she and her DH husband do, might give another an idea.

I don't believe talking generally about what one does is trying to toot ones own horn. Anymore than those who do Project Linus, etc, and mention it, are bragging, etc. I had never heard of Project Linus before seeing quilts people had posted on here for it, and talking of it.

Just my opinion.
The Angel Food Ministeries are wonderful. It has helped several members of my family for food. You get an order of good food to feed a family of 4 for a week. People on limited incomes have a big boost in there food budget. I have told friends and familly about them. You dont have to been desperate to order their food.
I for one did not misunderstand your post. You do a great goodness when you help with this foundation. I was just raised to keep quite about helping if it is a close community and you know the people. The Angel Food Ministries needs to be talked about because as you said a lot of people haven't heard about it. I tell anyone that will listen. The lost jobs,lost homes,childeren,parents,elderly all can get this you don't have to be jobless,homeless and still can get the food order. I have bought it for some of my extended family. Boy does it help. I thank God for them.
