Since 2019, our volunteer team has run Neighbors' Pantry every Sunday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 12 families, and now we feed 227 each week. Donations have dropped by about 38% this summer, 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 London market and keep every receipt. Each $25 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $1,950 goes: • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $800 • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $820 • Baby formula and diapers: $330 Thanks for being kind about this. - Cameron

    Genuine person with a big heart

    Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

    Good luck, Cameron. Shared this with my family. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
