Since 2022, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Monday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 9 families, and now we feed 134 each week. Donations have dropped by about 35% this winter, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 10 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Bristol market and keep every receipt. Each $50 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $2,550 goes: • Refrigeration and electricity: $370 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $450 • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,730 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Liam
