Feed 130 families each week at Neighbors' Pantry in Mumbai
The Neighbors' Pantry pantry in Mumbai is running low just as demand rises; $500 will stock it for 7 weeks.

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Sunday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 29 families, and now we feed 130 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 35% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 17 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Mumbai market and keep every receipt.
Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week.
I'll post the weekly shopping receipts and a photo of the shelves each Sunday.
Where the $500 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $185
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $170
• Baby formula and diapers: $95
• Refrigeration and electricity: $50
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
