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
