Hubballi
Since 2020, our volunteer team has run the Thursday Table every Friday from the back of a borrowed garage. We started with 11 families, and now we feed 353 each week. Donations have dropped by about 31% this harvest gap, while the line has grown every single week. We rely on volunteers - 15 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Hubballi 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 $500 goes: • Refrigeration and electricity: $40 • Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $330 • Fresh vegetables and fruit: $130 Every share and every dollar helps. - Pranjal
