Feed 351 families each week at the Second Helping in San Antonio

Since 2023, our volunteer team has run the Second Helping every Wednesday from the back of a school canteen. We started with 12 families, and now we feed 351 each week. Donations have dropped by about 34% this rainy season, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 8 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the San Antonio market and keep every receipt. Each $55 feeds a family of four for a week. All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs. Where the $2,300 goes: • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $400 • Baby formula and diapers: $370 • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $1,530 Thanks for being kind about this. - Eduardo
