I follow someone on TIkTok (or I did, before it went dark yesterday 😢) who went dumpster diving every day. Her primary goal at first was to find feminine products and toiletries to donate to the homeless. I was often astonished at the amount of perfectly good items that would get tossed out by businesses every day. She's a recovering addict and while she didn't have much for herself, everything she found in dumpsters would be donated or sold, with all the proceeds going to the less fortunate

I was trying to remember her name as I was typing my comment. I think her TikTok username was SaltyStella, or something along those lines.
