Without so much as even a thanks. Not sure the food bank workers are after so much recognition. When I registered and filled out the paperwork I was mostly ignnored by the lady at the front desk. Your experience with food banks may be different.

I'm sure there are many Atheist and Secular volunteers out there.
But lets face it the christians really did the work of establishing your food bank.
Quote:I've been pretty independent otherwise, and I'm not sure how many have really helped me out.No, and no. The community of giving is small and all of it combined delivers less nutrition than wic, snap, usaid, the us military - etc, and we haven't left just one secular country's secular activities.
The evidence I have seen I have seen is that christian workers go without credit too.
So I really can't tell how many of who secretly helped me.
They have the big charities tho, and more of them.
Quote:Mind you I'm not saying I like them. I'm not saying they are good. They are not.I like food banks at churches, I think they're great. It's the rest of the shit they get up to that concerns me.
