Since 2021, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Tuesday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 28 families, and now we feed 186 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 57% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 20 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Bang Khen market and keep every receipt.
Each $15 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $700 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $310
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $195
• Baby formula and diapers: $135
• Refrigeration and electricity: $60
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thanks for sharing this, Duangjai. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Medina donated after I showed her your page. Love from Medina.
