Feed 204 families each week at the Sunday Shelf in Santa Fe
The the Sunday Shelf pantry in Santa Fe is running low just as demand rises; $600 will stock it for 11 weeks.
🇦🇷 Santa Fe, Santa Fe, Argentina1,259 views
Since 2023, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Saturday from the back of a community center. We started with 24 families, and now we feed 204 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 51% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 16 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Santa Fe 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 $600 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $230
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $175
• Baby formula and diapers: $120
• Refrigeration and electricity: $75
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hang in there, Marcos. Great idea, hope you get there. After 9 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Sending good thoughts, Marcos. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Istanbul but we're thinking of you. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Marcos. More neighborhoods should do this. All the best.
