Since 2020, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Monday from the back of the mosque courtyard. We started with 13 families, and now we feed 209 each week. Donations have dropped by about 44% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 18 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Jodhpur 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 $550 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $340 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $70 • Baby formula and diapers: $65 • Refrigeration and electricity: $75 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Mukesh
