I figured as much. I don’t want to drop anything off that’s not a direct drop off

There are a few legit bins

Martha’s Table also accepts donations directly

I haven't kept abreast of it - but there were local efforts for afghanistan/ukraine refugees in the past couple years that probably need continual support even if they're not in the spotlight as much

Most bins are fine. But not the yellow ones.
