Feed 192 families each week at the Thursday Table in Kyiv

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Friday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 11 families, and now we feed 192 each week. Donations have dropped by about 30% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 8 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Kyiv 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 $650 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $250 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $220 • Baby formula and diapers: $85 • Refrigeration and electricity: $95 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
