Food Banks in the Emerald City
Seattlest knows that not everyone is having a swell time in Bush's economy. Often people have to get some help with groceries by heading to our fine city's several food banks. We here have decided to give you a bit of a reference on these food banks if you were so inclined to donate either time, money or canned goods.
