Actually last year I chose not to donate because I knew that there
were some rather shady people living in our complex and there was a
high likelyhood that the food would be either vandalised by the idiot
children who went around breaking the pool furniture etc, or stolen...
fortunately since the building went condo all of those families are
long-gone and the complex has gone many notches upmarket so I felt
safe donating this year.
