How and where to donate your cookies Contact a local agency to make sure they will accept your cookies. Generally a personal contact, telephone call or visit will be all that’s needed to make the connection. Ask how many cookies they'll need. Check with your town hall or city government (call the office of Human Services — every city and town has one), to find out if there is a food pantry, family shelter, senior center, or other program to help neighbors in need. Ask the Human Services office to make an introduction for you. Local houses of worship are also a good resource. If you don't know of a local agency, contact the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (303-839-1852), which represents agencies in every single state in the US, and they will help you get connected. Contact a local Ronald McDonald House, which serves families of critically ill children. These programs welcome visitors and community involvement, so this is a particularly good match for kids who help decorate cookies. |
