Feed 244 families each week at the Sunday Shelf in Córdoba
The the Sunday Shelf pantry in Córdoba is running low just as demand rises; $550 will stock it for 6 weeks.

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run the Sunday Shelf every Tuesday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 11 families, and now we feed 244 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 60% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 7 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Córdoba 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:
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $330
• Refrigeration and electricity: $100
• Baby formula and diapers: $120
With deep gratitude,
Silvia

More neighborhoods should do this. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Moscow.
