She made sure that her volunteers gave each vehicle what the group defined as a week s worth of food: a whole frozen chicken; a box of nonperishable goods, including rice; a bag of dry snacks, like cereal; and a so-called Trump box from the Agriculture Department. This week, the box contained a dozen potatoes, cheese, milk, yogurt and celery.
