It’s one thing to talk about how your donations will help those in need. It’s another thing to show you.

The contents of the box have enough food to feed a family of four for five days. It is a family-friendly food kit, so it has food that kids will like, such as mac and cheese and peanut butter and jelly.

The box also contains beans, rice, oatmeal, shelf-stable milk and juice.

You can donate until March 1. Every dollar raised is $2 in meals to the Harry Chapin Food Bank. That means donating $6 feeds a family of four or donating $60 feeds 10 families.
