Exactly . Anything moneywise or things like blankets and coats should be taken to a shelter .Food is good. Cash is no no.
I seasoned and smoked it all myself, but had to get some help from my girlfriend with all the pulling as my hands and arms were getting tired! They had some people from churches help with the serving as well. What I did was smoke it all and shred it at my house on Saturday, then covered the foil trays with heavy duty foil and put it in my refrigerator out in the garage until the morning. Then, I got up early, heated it up at 350 in my ovens until it was nice and warm, then mixed in some BBQ sauce, re-covered them and too them downtown to serve it.Wow, amazing work sir. Did you do this yourself? I also love the feeling I get being able to help people. This society has blessed me with too much for me to sit and hoard it. I agree with you on the logistics problem. I have wanted to plan a cook myself but just getting equipment to where I needed it was a nightmare.
Hat tip to you for sure.

How very true. I've had the honor of being friends with Gerald for over 15 years and can honestly attest to the truth in this statement. He has always been a generous and giving person but this is going to a whole new level.I am reminded of what the greatest moral teacher that has ever lived, taught: "Feed the hungry, Help the poor and, Protect the weak."
You are an exceptional human, sir.
Very kind of you and great job!
A buddy of mines wife runs a food pantry for the county to the north of me. They started doing a wild game feast that has continually grown every year! The way it works, you take your favorite dish and enter it into the contest. If you bring a dish the admittance is free or discounted for you. If not you are charged. You can byob or buy drinks there. There are side raffles and silent auctions too. There is a huge gathering and an amazing amount of the some of the best food you will ever try! Guys really took off with it since it is for a good cause and the chance to win (beat on your chest moment!) one of the categories! They completely make their proposed quota plus some every year!
I havent made it in several years due to it always being on sat night right in the middle of high school basketball season, but cant wait to rejoin it here in a couple years!
Kudos for folks like you trying to make a difference!
