Any moment now, as Christmas and (American) Thanksgiving get closer, people will start posting suggestions of things to donate to food banks and 'Reverse Advent Calendars'.
I can't stress this enough:
Just. Give. Money.
Food banks can usually get more bang for their buck than you can.
They'll probably be able to give you a tax receipt for money, but not for cans.
And it lets them buy, store, and distribute food in the volumes they need and can handle.
(Please boost to make sure people get the message.)

Things I’ve done in preparation as #thanksgiving host:
➡️ extra rapid tests and asking guests to test before coming
➡️ extra kn95
➡️ portable HEPA air filters in dining area
➡️ window will be cracked
➡️ hand sanitizer everywhere
It’s not just about #COVID when you have folks coming from all over with kids. (All are vaccinated/boosted). Taking precautions from the other lovely bugs out there.
Morning! In the wildness of today, remember that *state legislatures* are critical to the future of our civil rights + democracy.
Sister District is running phonebanks til polls close for sweet progressive state leg candidates in the most important chambers. I’m worried about losing NV’s blue trifecta and WI falling into GOP supermajority.
Join up for an hour if you can! A little effort goes a long way at this level of the ballot. #Midterms #GOTV #Politics #Elections https://www.mobilize.us/sisterdistrict/event/387377/
