What the actual fuck? Okay, here's the thing. Telling people in mass usually is not done through iOS. How do they normally communicate it? I would assume Facebook posts or some kind of mass messaging like an email group or something where you don't have potentially hundreds of people all in the same reply group. I'm not doubting the legitimacy of your post here, I'm doubting that the phone is actually for the food bank and not just somebody trying to get a free present for a kid/relative under the guise of the food bank.
