Since 2019, our volunteer team has run the Harvest Pantry every Monday from the back of the old library basement. We started with 15 families, and now we feed 142 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 52% this school holidays, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 19 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Faisalabad market and keep every receipt.
Each $5 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $250 goes:
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $80
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $120
• Baby formula and diapers: $50
I hope life is good to you.

You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from São Paulo.
