Community Food Share's Bagging Hunger

One of my favorite events, Community Food Share's Let's Bag Hunger food collection campaign, is underway through November 27th.  You can drop off donations at grocery stores all over Boulder, or donate online on their website.  I enjoy doing a special shopping trip for this each year, bringing back skills honed long ago as a starving student, to optimize a big basket of great non-perishable food (proteins like peanut butter especially appreciated) at the best possible price.  Or, lots of our local stores have "grab and give" prepared bags ready for your donation purchase.  C'mon.  It's an expensive time of year, but you'll likely be dropping three figures for your Thanksgiving purchase at Whole Foods, so please do consider whether there's a little room to help out a family that possibly doesn't know if it will have anything to put together for its next meal.
