They stopped doing the drive thru food bank and it’s impossible for me to get in there with my kids and have to wait with them inside for a long time. ☹️ Not happy

Do you charge people to get clothes? I would like to donate my baby clothes for people that do not have to pay. Goodwill resells the clothes and I would like the people to get it for FREE.

Andrew garcia | Oct 19, 2019
Diana Savannah | Oct 19, 2019

No they don't charge at all. And I was in there for clothing a week & a half ago... BOY! They really need donations. I don't have small children but I'll bet that's the area of biggest need. The pickings were very slim. I'm sure they will appreciate your donation very much. They also accept some household goods, etc. That's partially what I needed. When I have some things I don't use, I'll send them there as well. Great idea of you, to give back. Doesn't it feel great?

David Mccoy | Oct 19, 2019
Diana Savannah | Oct 19, 2019

Meanwhile call the Dallas county C.E.A.P. (Comprehensive energy assistance program) you have to call at 8am & call till you get through. Wait on hold, then ask for an appointment. The hold can be an hour, easily & then they run out of appointments each day. But keep trying till you get one. They put you on the program & it gives you assistance for the rest of the year with a large portion of your electric bill. This is based on income of course. This is a really good program..... You can Google the #.

Hello I'm in need of a refrigerator, I have four children, and been without food for 3 weeks. Can you help.

RedthegreatYT | Oct 19, 2019
Diana Savannah | Oct 19, 2019

Idk what they can or will do but it doesn't hurt to ask. They are very nice. Also look on FB marketplace. People give things like that away sometimes... All you have to do is go pick it up. Secondly, join some "free" pages for your area on Facebook. You can post on there that you need one & those people are very helpful too. Try other food banks also, don't give up.
