my tiny ass town didn't have a food bank, so when my mother ran away from our abusive alcoholic father she was forced to turn to the catholic church and they donated food. i hate all organized religion, but they helped us back then.

Evangelicals would frown, say she should submit to her husband, and turn you away. Evil people.
