| Something most people are unaware of is that $1.00 buys eight pounds of food at the Capital Area Food Bank. So, donation dollars allow the Food Pantry to purchase healthy, nutritious foods for our clients at a fraction of the cost of foods purchased at local grocery stores. Therefore, cash donations actually reach farther to feed more people. Please consider this when you are contemplating your donation decision. All donations are fully tax deductible. |
