I guess I'll also just chirp in here and point out that local food banks are a great way to make an immediate difference in your neighborhood, that the need is great (now greater than ever thanks to various USDA shenanigans and the Trumpaloos) and that such donations reduce your federal tax liability.
And that you're a lot closer to needing a food bank than you are being a billionaire.
Local food banks also desperately need volunteers. I had never given this much thought until my son's Scout Troop volunteered at the food bank in my area. Had to register him in their system, so now I regularly receive emails asking for volunteers. The food bank was recently feeding federal employees in the area due to the government shutdown, and, interestingly, they chose a location by the airport, which is miles away from the warehouse, to distribute meals to the employees. They do a lot of good work at the community level.
