Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Saturday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 14 families, and now we feed 335 each week. Donations have dropped by about 42% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 14 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Likoni market and keep every receipt. Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $650 goes: • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $380 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $115 • Baby formula and diapers: $105 • Refrigeration and electricity: $50 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Kimani
