Since 2022, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Monday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 12 families, and now we feed 336 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 31% this winter, 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 London market and keep every receipt.
Each $30 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $1,400 goes:
• Refrigeration and electricity: $280
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $840
• Baby formula and diapers: $280
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Thank you all. We're at 20% now ($280). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the wholesaler and confirmed the amounts.
