REQUEST FULFILLED $25 for food please?

I am currently broke and waiting on my EBT(foodstamps) to come in. I can show proof I'm on them and disabled. I'm 30 and live alone. I have Ubereats and doordash so you could just send a gift card instead of money. Otherwise I use cashapp, Venmo, Paypal and NetSpend. And an Amazon wishlist

Contact 211, local community action agencies, charities, and churches; they may be able to help. Also, ask if they offer transportation services for people with disabilities. They may offer transportation services such as fixed-route transit, paratransit,or rural transit/ rural transportation programs, and they also may refer you to transportation services due to your disability to get to food banks in your area, if necessary.

For food needs, Amazon wishlists do much better here due to the lack of personal information and cash not needing to change hands. It’s free to set up, helpers have Prime subs, so you’ll have same day/next day delivery in most cases. Once you’ve made your list you can add the link to this post.

Suggested items consist of shelf-stable items (there is no fresh produce/meat/dairy available on Amazon Prime) like peanut butter, ramen, boxed pasta, dry pasta, jarred sauces, canned soup/chili/veggies, canned tuna/chicken/spam, oatmeal, rice, dry beans, boxed cereal, trail mix, granola bars, fruit snacks, pepperoni sticks, and so on and so forth. You can add cleaning supplies, hygiene items, pet food if you have pets too.

Please make sure the total of your wishlist does not exceed $150 USD.

I’ve linked our guide above which walks you through the steps — it’s completely free to do. Amazon wishlists work primarily for US/Canada residents; if you’re outside of North America please edit your post to include your general location as per our rules. :)
