For other HNers out there that may have the time this weekend, here are some good resources that should get you started on helping out those in your community:

Donate a book to help rehabilitate the incarcerated: https://bookriot.com/2015/09/03/donate-books-prisons/

Volunteer to help the incarcerated: https://www.bop.gov/jobs/volunteer.jsp

Help end homelessness today: https://endhomelessness.org/

Help feed the homeless: https://www.homelessshelterdirectory.org/

Help feed anyone that needs food: https://www.feedingamerica.org/find-your-local-foodbank?refe...

Help feed hungry children and babies: https://www.foodpantries.org/

Help those in need near you: https://www.redcross.org/volunteer/volunteer-role-finder.htm...

Yapping about the nuances of helping others on here means jack-squat to those people in your community that need help now.

Any amount of help is 'good enough', any amount of volunteering is 'the best way to do things', any amount of canned food for a hungry child is 'spending money wisely'.
