    • Where will the food come from? (e.g., local shops, neighbors, farmers, restaurants).
    • How will you encourage people to donate?
  4. Location and Setup:
    • Where will your food bank be located?
    • Describe or draw the setup (e.g., shelves for food, collection bins).
  5. Volunteers:
    • Who will help run the food bank?
    • How will you recruit and train them?
  6. Distribution Plan:
    • How will you make sure the food gets to the people who need it most?
    • How often will you distribute food (daily, weekly)?
  7. Challenges and Solutions:
    • What problems might you face (e.g., lack of food donations, spoiled food)?
    • How would you solve them?
