A Holiday Idea: Donate Bare Essentials. Keep it Simple

It's tough times. We are all stressed out on a daily basis more than usual. So, it may not come as quickly this year, but the thought of giving to others during the holiday season will come to you.  I received a mail from the director of Pacific Pride Foundation here in Santa Barbara today that gave me pause. In the mail, David provided a list of bare essentials for us to consider taking to the local food bank. Here is that list as well as a link to Feeding America . 

Keep it Simple but Keep it in Mind

Frozen Turkeys (for a Happy Thanksgiving) Paper Towels Toilet Paper (individual or bulk) Toothpaste/Floss* Toothbrushes Mouthwash* Shampoos/Conditioners* Soap (indiv. bars) Sodas/Gatorade* Bottled Water (individual, bottled) Juices* Laundry Detergent (liquid) Cooking Oil Salad dressings Sugar Flour Canned Tuna/Chicken *smaller individual or family size better than larger "bulk" containers.
