are we allowed to donate to a church or church feeding program or a temple or any kufaar organization
Answer
No, since one?s donation will indirectly be used to promote that religion. One should set up one?s own feeding scheme or assist any Muslim organisation involved in such a work.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
