Augmenting MCIera's response about the Meals on Wheels program here is
the response from a different thread:

Many churches including the catholic ones offer food pantries for the needy. It could conceivably be a good place to store extra unneeded MRE's. Let your conscience inform you which are the good ones based on your experience.

I believe the Coyote Camp meals would make a good source for a food pantry.

MCIera's Response:

Coyote Camp packages the components into shelf stable meal packages for a different demographic. There are a number of companies that have been packaging commercially available components into shelf stable meals for years as emergency meals for seniors as part of the Meals on Wheels program.

Here's a few that you may find of interest.

Back when the started the Meals on Wheels program in New York City my aunt and grandma got interviewed by the New York Times and the story was printed.
