food donations

Does DPW still take food donations from people leaving the playa?
If not, any recs for other places in the area taking food donations?
Thanks!

You may want https://fbnn.org/ways-to-give/givefood/ - Food Bank of Northern Nevada. Stop by Playa Info in BRC early in the week. If they don't know, they should find out. Many burners would have the same question. DPW is not going to starve. They might like any leftover alcohol or cannabis...

Socks are the schnitzel when you want to bribe help the DPW crew.

Comfort and Joy (bless them) takes donations post playa that they distribute to the local indigenous population. Look for the Huge pink and orange flags (I think at Nixon?).
