Explain why a cash donation can go a lot further than a food donation.

According to Kathryn Strickland, Feeding America's chief network officer, "Food banks are very good stewards of cash. What we're able to do with $1 is leverage it and purchase food at wholesale. It goes farther than if we purchased food at the grocery store."

Donated funds also help to buy foods that are harder to donate but more nutritious — fresh fruits and vegetables, frozen meat, milk and eggs are all good examples. With every $1 donated, some food banks can provide up to four full meals.

Here are some examples of how food banks can stretch a dollar:

  • $100 can purchase 10 cases of shelf-stable milk
  • $2,000 can purchase 10 tons of potatoes
  • $5,000 can purchase almost an entire truck filled with a variety of fresh produce
