FOOD
Food insecurity and outright hunger are going to be issues for the foreseeable future. Second harvest food Bank is always taking donations, if you have a specific pantry or charity you can ask them how to Target your donation. 
Beware of unofficial-looking announcements for food giveaways. Call to make sure. I've contacted local media to please address this and offer solid agency-verified info and resources.
If you need food assistance contact Second Harvest Food Bank. 
Please offer any corrections or additions.
