Forced to beg for food. (lemmy.world)

Hello. I'm forced to beg for food currently, and this is the least forced place available. I haven't used Lemmy before, and am unsure where to ask.

Without saying what country or province you are in it is hard to help. I am going to assume you have already googled for food banks in your area.

I'm sorry you're dealing with this. The best location to ask would probably be on the mutual aid community. If you can share more of where you are located maybe we can get you to more local help.

You can hang around the Imgur community, there are posts from "pizza angels" where people give pizza or groceries to those in need every week or so!
