Since 2020, our volunteer team has run Community Pantry every Monday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 22 families, and now we feed 294 each week. Donations have dropped by about 36% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 9 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Nagpur market and keep every receipt. Each $5 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $250 goes: • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $100 • Baby formula and diapers: $95 • Refrigeration and electricity: $55 Thank you for reading my story. - Rohit
