Every holiday season, we show up with love — and a box of pasta. But what if that pasta never actually gets used? In this episode, we’re flipping the script on holiday giving. Inspired by a powerful Facebook post shared by Lana Young and written by Paula Garfield, we break down what food banks really need — straight from the people who use them. Turns out, some of the most donated items (like boxed mac and cheese) often go untouched because they require ingredients that aren’t easy to get, like butter or milk. Meanwhile, simple items like boxed milk, cooking oil, salt, pepper, and spices can be absolute game changers. We’ll cover: The surprising foods that often go unused — and why. The low-cost items that make a massive difference, from oil to tea bags. The non-food essentials that bring dignity and relief (think feminine hygiene products and dish soap). How to make your holiday donations smarter, not bigger — and help families truly celebrate this season. We’re talking about generosity that actually lands. Giving that feeds hearts and stomachs. This year, let’s be intentional — not just kind. If this episode makes you rethink your giving list, share it. And maybe next time you’re at Publix or Costco, toss in boxed milk instead of another box of spaghetti. Small swaps, big love. ❤️ If you ever want to buy or sell a property anywhere in the world, our team would be honored to help get you to your next destination.
