Feed 180 families each week at Neighbors' Pantry in Piraeus
Help keep a free food pantry open for neighbors in need in Piraeus.

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Thursday from the back of the old library basement. We started with 21 families, and now we feed 180 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 38% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 13 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Piraeus market and keep every receipt.
Each $25 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $1,550 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $710
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $490
• Baby formula and diapers: $280
• Refrigeration and electricity: $70
Thank you so much.
