Feed 256 families each week at the Thursday Table in Karachi

Since 2021, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Friday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 15 families, and now we feed 256 each week. Donations have dropped by about 51% this winter, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 12 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Karachi market and keep every receipt. Each $5 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 $500 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $190 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $165 • Baby formula and diapers: $85 • Refrigeration and electricity: $60 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Nimra
