How do kids take advantage of the stuff from drives like the webmaster toy run, food bank etc? It breaks my heart that these kids are losing out on a lot of luxuries in life (kid got pulled from baseball cause his glove broke and they couldn't buy him another one and wouldn't tell family so we could get him one because they were embarrassed because they are such idiots)
Where can I direct the parents to get things from?
Thanks!

I am so sorry to hear about your father in law and his family. They could try the Salvation Army. They help financially and with Christmas gifts. Food banks and churches also offer a lot of services. I think for help from a food bank you call them and they will give you the times you can come by. There are a lot of good suggestions already posted on here. I hope things work out for them.
